Joshua, fully titled Joshua & the Battle of Jericho, is an unlicensed puzzle game and a sequel to Exodus: Journey to the Promised Land (NES), both of which are Christian-themed redesigns of Crystal Mines (NES), a title developed by Color Dreams, the Wisdom Tree's predecessor.

As the title suggests, the player controls Joshua, who must travel through 120 levels, collecting various items and using his trumpet to fight enemies and destroy obstacles. At the end of each level is a quiz with questions related to the Bible.

Music

The soundtrack is pretty decent for Wisdom Tree standards but there isn't much of it. It only consists of 15 second loops that get annoying quickly and short jingles. The recording was made using the game's sound test.
