Noah's Ark has a reputation among diehards as one of the few NES games released in Europe but not North America, and because of this I've always been curious about it. To get it out of the way, from what I've played this game isn't religious beyond the fact it stars Noah, he has an ark, and there are animals and a flood. I would describe this as a horizontal shooter built around platformer mechanics. Noah can jump and shoot, but the screen is always scrolling (except when fighting a boss) and there is always some amount of water at the bottom of the screen, which you can swim through and jump out of. Noah's jump is very stiff, but when you have the feel for it he's pretty agile. There are a lot of items to collect, and Noah can transform into things such as a bird, a fish and a statue.

About This Game
Noah has been commanded by God to put two of each animal aboard his ark to save them from the flood. However unhappy people from around the world have captured different animal species, preventing Noah from doing his job. Noah will need to visit these different locations and free the animals from the people holding them captive.
Noah's Ark is a side scrolling action game. The player, as Noah, must choose which level from several world locations to play. Once in a level, Noah can move left right, duck, jump and fire pellets directly in front of him. These pellets can be used to defeat enemy creatures and uncover hidden items. At the end of each level, Noah will encounter a stronger enemy creature who must be defeated. Noah's ultimate goal is to rescue the designated captive animals listed for each level.

There is only partial controller support, which means basically no controller support, so even if I configure my xbox one controller through steam, there is an unacceptable amount of input lag. The emulation is poor at best so it runs slow and choppy. All of this makes it unplayable.
