 == **READ THIS NOTE BELOW BEFORE READING THE REPORT**
 Issues that might be bugs that the game has always had, will be
 __underlined__ and ''italicized''. they still need to be looked into in
 order to make sure these issues are not a side effect of running the game
 on faster modern hardware or a ScummVM issue in general.
 __
 == Start Up & Main Menu
 While no longer game breaking, the main menu are still broken and becomes
 unusable if your not careful where you put your mouse cursor. The best way
 to test this is to move your mouse over the buttons a few times, the more
 you do it, the more broken it gets.

 __''The error "Failed to open You intro!" shows up in the console on start
 up, so there might be something not getting loaded''__

 ||WARNING: Adding \0 to String. This is permitted, but can have unwanted
 consequences.
 ||WARNING: Cast::loadCastInfo(): BUILDBOT: string # 13
 ||WARNING: Frame::readMainChannelsD5(): STUB: unk2: 0x00 0x01!
 ||WARNING: stream is 0!

 == Storybook - Paul and the Bright Light
 Works but has some UNK stub errors

 == Discover The Bible
 It mostly works but has three issues

 * It 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!

 * Pressing the up or down scroll button will cause parts of the UI to
 disappear
 ||WARNING: Sprite::getShape(): kCastMemberSprite has no cast defined!
 ||WARNING: Sprite::getShape(): kCastMemberSprite has no cast defined!

 * If you click bible icon twice, the text will brake. the status window
 gives no error messages when this happens

 == Hall of Fame
 Works but has some UNK stub errors

 == Bible-Time Theater
 Works well, videos play without graphical issues, that said, __''there is
 a weird delay between when you press play (aka the green street light) and
 the movie playing.''__

 == Fun & Games Menu & The Mini-Games themselves.

 **Menu**:
 It works well

 **Help Button Horror**:
 After selecting help button in the puzzle game, the game crashed and this
 cause domino effect were pressing almost any of the buttons in the button
 bar now has a chance of cause a crash.
 ||WARNING: BUILDBOT: Uncaught Lingo error: No match found for cast member!
 Builtin 'member' did not return value
 **Matching Game**:
 It works well but the audio that plays when you finish the board is
 missing

 **Maze**:
 It seems to work but this game bring up an issue shows up throughout the
 game, ScummVM is not loading the correct cursor graphics, for example, in
 this maze "hide and seek" game, the cursor is supposed to turn into a
 magnifying glass when place over a spot that can be searched.

 ||WARNING: Cursor::readFromCast: Needs array of 2!

 **Dot to Dot**:
 The first "Dot to Dot" seems always work but the second one (after he says
 "that was fun, lets play again") will always have broken graphics (aka,
 the line that connects each dot together is missing)

 **Bible Memory**:
 Works with some errors, the second seems to be related to a graphical
 issue where a box (with text in it) leaves two noticeable pieces of itself
 on screen. While a minor issue in this game, there is a good chance that
 whatever is causing this effecting another game more severely
 ||WARNING: Frame::readMainChannelsD5(): STUB: unk2: 0x00 0x01!
 ||WARNING: b_puppetTransition: Transition already queued!

 **Puzzles**:
 Work with a minor graphical issue on the puzzle selection menu, there is a
 thin white line that shouldn't be there.

 **Word Games**:
 This game has two issues

 * __''Missing Audio: a voice over that give introduces the game and gives
 instructions is missing''__
 ||__''WARNING: Failed to open todd1! ''__
 ||WARNING: stream is 0!

 * __''Some reason, you sometimes can't unselecting letters making it
 sometimes impossible to correct a mistake.''__

 == Bible Quiz Show
 Works

 == Miscellaneous Notes
 These files seem to be leftovers from when the game been developed that
 somehow made it every copy of the game
