Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Israel's No. 1 prophet, Jonah, has a great job delivering God's messages. But when Jonah gets the call to go to Nineveh, he runs away--straight into a whale-full of trouble. Join Jonah (played by Archibald Asparagus) and Khalil the caterpillar on the voyage of a lifetime, from a stormy ride on a pirate ship to the belly of a whale, and across the desert to the city of Nineveh--where the people are so nasty, they slap each other with fishes. In Jonah, 12 incredible arcade games bring the biblical story of Jonah to life in this CD-ROM designed for children ages 5 and older.

5.0 out of 5 stars Saw preview of Jonah for CD-ROM-it's GREAT!!!, September 20, 2002

This review is from: Jonah: A VeggieTales Game (CD-ROM)

I saw a preview for this game for kids. It has all the same beautiful quality graphics (like Toy Story quality!) as the DVD and videos. It has interactive games to play all with a positive message. It has a time-out feature so parents can let children play for a certain amount of time. Best of all it is FUN!! Very high quality!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the kids, January 8, 2003

This review is from: Jonah: A VeggieTales Game (CD-ROM)

We don't buy many games, but this one's a keeper. It has the same great look as the Veggie Tales videos and, just as important, the same hilarious voices. Though it tells the story of Jonah, this is not really an educational or instructional video: kids play games (such as shooting cheese curls at pirates) to earn progress on Jonah's voyage to Nineveh. This game is just right for my six year old; the box recommends the game for ages five and up. Parents can set an internal "egg timer" which tells the kids when time is up--30 minutes on this game is great reward for chores or school work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Nephew Loves it!!!!, June 17, 2003

This review is from: Jonah: A VeggieTales Game (CD-ROM)

In this game, you can throw messages from God into tents and break pots and hit screeching cats (off screen)to boot. You can shoot athletic equipment at whales, skid camels down hills, bounce a prophetic asparagus up a building to stop people from slapping each other with fish, and shoot yelling vegetables into the sea. My nephew (and my mother and myself) enjoy sending the Veggies off the screen in the plank walking game best. This is the best game to leave a child alone with because it has large colored arrows that help a pre-reading child to navigate the game to find the part that he likes. I highly recommend this game.
