FAQ
How is this a Christian Game?
Save the Lost acts as a metaphor for profound Christian principles about avoiding temptation, finding redemption and helping others do the same. It’s 100% fun – but also 100% Christian. The game can be used to facilitate discussion regarding the following topics:
- Avoiding Tempters
- The challenge of finding The Light
- Helping others reach The Light with you
- Making Tempters lose their power
- Winning together as a group
What age is it meant for?
If you can run, you can play! The most common ages of our players are 8-14 but something we’re proud of is the way that multiple ages can play together. We’ve literally seen grandparents play with their grandchildren. It also works great for birthdays, family reunions, camps and icebreakers.
How many people can play?
It ranges from 4-16+, depending on the setting. More players than 16 can enjoy the game but there won’t be enough “lights” for everyone to become saved. In this circumstance, we recommend setting a time limit and seeing how many players can succeed in a more narrow span of time.
Where can I play it?
As long as there’s space to run freely — and safely — there’s an opportunity to play this game. Backyards, parks, campgrounds: they all work. You also can play indoors with the lights off so long as the area is clear of obstructions. Indoor rec areas and gyms work especially well for this.
Are batteries included?
All required batteries are included.
Is it possible to replace the batteries?
With the exception of the crosses, all the batteries are 100% replaceable. To replenish batteries, use 3 AG13 for the orbs; 3 LR1130 for candles; and 2 CR2016 for Tempter bracelets.
How long do the batteries last?
The lights will last at full intensity for 8-10 hours. After that, they continue to light up for another 24-36 hours but will grow more dim with time.
What if a light isn’t working when I first get the game?
Let us know and we’ll send you a replacement within 48 hours
Can I play this during the daytime?
If you want to play during the day, we recommend finding a safe and spacious indoor area where you can turn off the lights (such as a gymnasium). That said, you can still play outside during the day – all the game pieces will still be visible and functional – it just won’t be as visually dynamic as at night.

“It's different from other games because it's cool:
the tactics you
can use and because you're playing in the dark.”
— Jack S., 16
Fun and Exciting
“It was just fun because sometimes you have to be sneaky and
sometimes you have to be fast.”
— Joseph W., 12
ACTIVE
“It teaches you stuff. Like that there's going to be
someone leading
you, that you just got to follow them. Like the disciples.”
— Jose R., 15
SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES
Save the Lost is a fast paced Christian game where players literally search the darkness to find The Light. To do so, they must outrun, out hide and outwit the enemy characters, called “Tempters.” But succeeding as an individual is not enough — to win, EVERYONE must find The Light and become Saved!

We introduced this game to our Christian group of about twenty kids. They played it for a couple of hours and had so much fun. The discussion following the game of how the rules and lessons of the game applied specifically to the youth’s ministry among themselves and to others was rich. This is a perfect game for youth activities where you want to get everyone involved, cutting through social strata. It would be especially wonderful for youth retreats of almost any kind. We played it inside a church building as well as outside on the church’s grounds.

As a youth leader at church I thought this would be a fun game to play during one of our “lock-in” parties. We turned off all the lights in the gym and let everyone go at it! This was a ton of fun! Plus for our upcoming New Years Party this will be great in filling time as everyone waits until midnight. Can’t wait to take it to summer camp as well because I think everyone will love it after night chapel!
