Redemption (card game)

Modern Hobby Strategy Games

Redemption is a collectible card game based on the Bible. Its cards represent Biblical characters, places, objects and ideas. Players use their Heroes, the good characters, to rescue Lost Souls by defeating the Evil Characters of an opponent, and the first player to rescue five Lost Souls wins the game. Redemption was first published in July 1995 by Cactus Game Design. Its creator, Rob Anderson, continues to develop and produce the game and remains the final authority on rulings. As a collectible card game drawing its whole theme from the Bible, with a single creator who still develops it, it is a distinctive entry among faith-themed games.
