The front of the box for Noah's Ark
Status: Lost
Noah's Ark is a lost 1995 Windows/Mac adventure game linked to NEC. Very little is known about this game, but from the screenshots and brief description we have the game seems to be a Myst style point and click adventure. A sold listing with photographs of the game's box from several angles was discovered on Yahoo Auctions Japan, thus confirming the game's existence. Using the Wayback machine two archives of the game's website were found, one in English and one in Japanese.
According to the Japanese version of the site, Kenichi Shigeto[1] and Kazuhiro Nishimatsu worked on the game as an artist and a composer respectively, and they seem to have credits on other projects related to their stated fields.[2]
The screenshots shown on the English version of the website suggest that this game was at least partially in English. As the GUI in the screenshots has English text. However, it is unknown if the game originally had English text on the GUI or if it had been translated into English, as the .gif file pulled from the JP version of the site is too low resolution to determine the language of the text.
