“Game of the Maccabees” is a unique blend of arcade action and educational gameplay, where you take on the role of a Maccabee warrior fighting an army of oppressors. Armed with a bow, you move vertically across the battlefield, targeting enemies and scoring points for altars, elephants, and other objects. But there's a second layer: by answering questions correctly, you can earn additional units, rewarding both strategy and knowledge. Every second counts, as you lose points over time – so fight, think, and win.
