A dark theological inspection game where you examine smuggled Scripture fragments, compare verses, uncover altered or fabricated passages, and decide what belongs in the Bible being rebuilt by the resistance.
THE BIBLE HAS BEEN OUTLAWED
In The Canon Keeper, the government has destroyed nearly every Bible and replaced Scripture with its own altered version. Fragments of the original Word are still being smuggled through the resistance, and they are brought to your desk so you can determine what is real and what has been changed.
Some fragments are authentic. Some are completely fabricated. Others have only one word changed, but that one word can corrupt the entire meaning of the passage.

A THEOLOGICAL INSPECTION GAME
The Canon Keeper is a theological Papers, Please like where doctrine, danger, and discernment collide at your desk.
Examine Scripture fragments, compare wording, check references, and use the materials available to decide whether each passage should be approved or rejected. The further you get, the harder it becomes to recognize the truth, because the most dangerous lies are the ones that sound almost completely biblical.

EVERY WORD MATTERS
The passages you approve are copied and distributed to underground churches and resistance cells. The people receiving them may have never seen a complete Bible, so they have no way of knowing whether you made the right decision.
Approve the truth, and you help rebuild Scripture. Approve something false, and that altered passage may spread throughout the resistance as the Word of God.

USE THE TOOLS AT YOUR DESK
You will need more than a good memory to survive. Compare fragments with your remaining references, check chapter and verse numbers, look for suspicious wording, and search documents for hidden clues.
When you are unsure, you can also pray and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance. But as fear and deception increase, you will still need discernment to recognize what is true.

YOUR DECISIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES
Your choices affect more than your score. Resistance cells may grow stronger, believers may be misled, trusted contacts may be placed in danger, and government suspicion may begin to rise.
Some consequences appear immediately. Others may not become clear until days later, when you discover what happened because of a fragment you approved.

KEEP THE WORD
You are not a soldier or a great leader. You are an ordinary person carrying out the final request of someone you loved:
Keep the Word.
The government is closing in, the resistance is becoming desperate, and every fragment brings you closer to either restoring the Bible or corrupting it forever.
Will you recognize the truth before it is too late?
