The game aims to reproduce the missionary journeys of St. Paul, and the history of his letters. The first two routes and the sea journey from Caesarea to Rome are reflected in accordance with historical facts, while the initial part of the third journey was adjusted to fit the game. The first stage of the game shows the journey from Jerusalem to Damascus, and includes Paul’s life changing encounter with the Risen Christ, which changed his life. Then, around the year 45, Paul sets out for his first missionary journey through Cyprus to the cities of Asia Minor, Antioch in Pisidia, Iconium, Lystra and Perga. During the second missionary journey (about the years 49-52) Paul reaches Europe. He travels through Macedonia (Philippi, Thessalonica), Achaia (Athens, Corinth) and pays a short visit to Ephesus.
During his third journey (about the years 53-58) the Apostle visits previously established churches throughout Asia Minor and Europe, and spends more time in Ephesus.
After returning to Jerusalem he is arrested by the Romans and charged by the Sanhedrin. For two years he stays under the guard during the rule of the Roman Governor Felix, awaiting a court hearing. During the rule of the next Governor named Festus, being a Roman citizen, Paul appeals to the Caesar, and is sent on a ship to Rome. After many adventures he reaches Rome around the year 61.
