What is Super Noah's Ark 3D?

Super Noah's Ark 3D is a Christian‑themed first‑person shooter released in 1994 by Wisdom Tree. It mimics Wolfenstein 3D’s engine but replaces guns with a slingshot that fires sleep‑inducing food at angry animals aboard the Ark. The game was originally distributed on a pass‑through cartridge for the Super Nintendo, and later re‑released for PC, Mac and Linux by Piko Interactive. Designed for younger players, it features secret passages, extra lives, and boss battles against oversized animals like Ernie the Elephant and Carl the Camel.

Key Features of Super Noah's Ark 3D

The game uses a unique pass‑through cartridge system that lets it run on an officially licensed SNES game.

Players control Noah and use a slingshot to launch sleep‑inducing food at hostile animals instead of traditional weapons.

Different animal types have distinct behaviors: goats kick, while sheep, ostriches, antelopes and oxen spit from a distance.

Secret passages and hidden rooms provide extra food, weapons, and extra lives for exploration rewards.

Larger slingshots allow players to fling coconuts and watermelons at boss‑like animals such as Ernie the Elephant and Carl the Camel.

The PC, Mac, and Linux ports retain the original SNES graphics and level design for a nostalgic experience.

The game includes quiz‑style trivia elements that reinforce biblical themes in a playful manner.

Multiple shortcut levels let younger players bypass tougher sections while still earning bonuses.
