Biblical marathon

This application has been created with the intention of being accessible to everyone. It also allows a motivating experience to learn the word of God, offering at all times, if the user wishes, communication with other users through groups, multiplayer Bible games and online ranking. The application can be divided into 3 parts, but in reality everything is integrated. 1) Game Biblical Marathon: The Biblical Marathon game is a fun way to read the whole Bible, or part of it, such as books composed by Pentateuch, Historical Books, Poetic Books, Major Prophets, Minor Prophets, Gospels and Epistles. The format of the game is simple, the users select the Marathon mode in which they want to participate and once the game is selected and created, the application will show the users a verse, from which they will have to guess the book to which it belongs. Once the game is created, an option is created on the main screen of the application so that the users can continue the marathon at any time without having to start again. At the end of the game, the users will have read all the books of the chosen marathon. By default, the user's score is in the Ranking, but the users can disable this option in the application settings or make their profile private. Multiplayer: The game format is similar to the Biblical Marathon but with some differences: o It allows adding up to 100 users to the game, so that the users can challenge their friends. For this the users must know the nick or email with which each friend they want to add has registered and use the search engine to find them. Once users are found, they can be added to the game and also to favorites to speed up the creation of future games. o It allows to create games with other unknown players, randomly. o The duration of the game is shorter and, by default, consists of 5 questions but it can be changed. All the players in the game will receive the same questions, whoever answers correctly and in the shortest time wins the game. This will be reflected in the user profile and in the ranking whenever the users wish, since this option can be disabled. There are more than 100 achievements in the application and many ways to get them by learning the word of God, either through reading or game mode. 2) Biblical Reading Mode Before explaining the different reading modes, we want to highlight the versions that are available for now:

A user can only be associated with a single group. They are useful, for example, for groups of friends or for a church, since the messages in the groups are private and only members of the group have access to it, it is a good way to communicate with the members without having to know personal information. When a private group is created, the group administrator generates a password that must be provided to future members, since we understand that groups are made up of users that know each other. All the readings made by the members, either in game format or as a reading plan, will be added to the group score. When questions are missed, points are lost. Observations: In summary, these are the main functionalities of the application. The application is translated in 8 languages, but only 3 languages (Spanish, Portuguese and English) have been translated by people. Please note that this application has been created by a person in his spare time and that this is only the first version. There are many improvements to come in the next versions and we are open to all suggestions. God bless you.
