Beyond Jericho
The Bible Quiz Showdown
Gather up to four Stewards around one phone or screen. Answer, choose what to risk, outrun the Gatekeeper and march on Jericho together. Hosted by Baraka, with 5,000 questions: 4,000 main-bank questions and 1,000 children’s questions, each supplied with a Scripture reference from the World English Bible.
HARVEST. CHOOSE. RACE. UNITE.
How to play
Choose your Gatekeeper and enter the Stewards’ names. Play on one shared screen, taking individual turns before facing the final together. Talents are in-game points, with no monetary value.
Choose Relaxed, Normal or Quick pace against adult Gatekeepers. Relaxed gives about 50% more time; Quick uses shorter clocks. The guide below describes Normal pace. The Lamplighter uses the children’s bank, three answer options, longer clocks and a shorter Path.
Download the full guide ↓- The Harvest. Each Steward answers as many questions as possible in 60 seconds. Every correct answer earns 100 talents.
- The Steward’s Choice. Pick Bury for a smaller, safer offer; Keep for your harvested talents; or Invest for a bigger reward and a tougher starting position.
- The Path. Race the Gatekeeper over eight stones. You both answer the same questions. Reach the Gate and your talents join the team pot; get caught and you fall.
- The Prodigal’s Return. Fallen Stewards get one chance together: five correct answers in 20 seconds bring one Steward back with their Bury amount.
- Jericho: the March. The team answers for two minutes, starting with one march for one Steward, two for two, or three for three or four. Each correct answer adds another march around the walls.
- Jericho: the Defence. The Gatekeeper has two minutes to rebuild the wall, one stone per correct answer.
- The Shout. When the Gatekeeper misses, the clock pauses. You have eight seconds to answer correctly and knock a stone back down.
- Bring down the walls. If the Gatekeeper cannot rebuild all your marches before time runs out, the walls fall and the team shares the pot.
- Review and return. Explore missed questions and their Bible references, share your score on WhatsApp or play again.

Intermediate
The Scribe
The fastest in Jericho, but shaky on harder questions.

The Scrollkeeper
Very accurate on the Path, but slower when defending Jericho.
Expert
The Sage
Rarely wrong, but two successful Shouts in a row can rattle him.
