Catch the Ark

Yes or No-ah?

After being out of Sunday school for some years, I've come to accept that some of what I was taught was wrong.

The antediluvian Noah, for example, is a tremendous jerk if PlaySlide Studios's Catch the Ark is to believed.

Rather than serve as the soft-hearted shepherd of all species destined to survive the flood, Catch the Ark's Noah is a panicky self-centered sod who clearly doesn't want certain critters to survive the flood since saving them might get him a bit wet.

Water, water everywhere

To stymie the selfish shepherd, the three adorable critters you control hop onto a raft just before the flood waters surge up behind them. The ensuing wave sends them rocketing after the ark, and thus the endless-running - or, more accurately, endless-rafting - of Catch the Ark begins.

Gorgeous graphics and fun presentation make this game a difficult one to stop playing
