New description:

 The Life Of Paul kind of works but it is vary unstable, temperamental and
 seems to have issues in almost every category.

 Reverse engineering
 I'm not 100% sure about this but some reverse engineering might be
 required, 11 files on the disk have no file extension and the following
 files with extensions can also found on the disk

 T.Background
 You.01
 Dir_Temp.232
 Dir_Temp.348

 There seems to be something weird going on with the game files that might
 be effecting ScummVM's ability to run it.

 Main Menu
 The buttons have gone from not working to unpredictable, sometimes they
 work, other times they don't. sometimes they work but then for whatever
 stop working (and vice versa) the behaviour of each button is random and
 all over the place.

 The "Interactive Bible For Kids" series has a character that shows up in
 every game, the main menu has this character in the middle pointing to
 each activity when you hover the mouse over an option but in scumm, the
 character is replaced with random objects

 WARNING: NinePatchBitmap::NinePatchBitmap(): Bad bitmap!
 WARNING: Adding \0 to String.
 WARNING: Failed to open You intro!
 WARNING: stream is 0!
 Label paul background plain.pict not found!

 Storybook - Paul and the Bright Light:
 The story part sometimes causes Scumm to Crash (well, not responding) with
 no console messages, it has also work as intended at least once.

 Bible Quiz Show
 Seems to Work but has broken graphics

 Discover The Bible:
 Works but gives messages related to sound
 WARNING: SNDDecoder: Unsupported command: 0!
 WARNING: Sound::load(): Invalid loop bounds detected. Disabling looping
 for cast member id 294, sndId 765!

 Hall of Fame
 I got to work only once, usually it does nothing but give this console
 message
 WARNING: Label Hall.Black.PICT not found!

 Bible-Time Theater
 Works well, videos play without graphical issues

 Fun & Games:
 The game menu also gives these errors
 WARNING: Sprite::getShape(): kCastMemberSprite has no cast defined!
 WARNING: Sprite::getShape(): kCastMemberSprite has no cast defined!

  Matching Game:
 Works with some graphical issues

  Dot to Dot:
 Broken graphics makes the game even more pointless then it all ready is.

  Bible Quiz:
 Pressing the "I'm ready to try" button causes all buttons in the bar below
 like the main menu, back and even the help button to become unclickable,
 effectively softlocking the game
