Description

"Noah's Ark" is a platform game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1992, developed by the British company Source Research and Development and published by Konami. The game presents a light-hearted, fictional take on the biblical story of Noah and the great flood. Players step into the role of Noah who must collect pairs of animals to save them from the impending deluge, navigating through a variety of levels with environmental challenges and obstacles. Each level is themed around different parts of the ark and features distinctive animal types, some of which pose as adversaries or obstacles, while others must be carefully led to the safety of the ark.

Unique among NES titles for its religious-themed content, "Noah's Ark" was released exclusively in Europe, making it a rare find and a point of curiosity among collectors. The gameplay mixes traditional platforming mechanics with puzzle-solving elements, as players must figure out how to safely gather and manage the animals, which include everything from mischievous monkeys to slowly plodding elephants. The game garnered attention for its divergence from typical video game themes of the time, offering a family-friendly option amidst a sea of more combat-focused games.
