Ark & Noah

About this board game

Ark & Noah is a strategy board game for 2–4 players that plays in about 45 minutes. Players take the roles of Noah and his sons, working together to find animal couples and load them onto the Ark before the Flood begins.

Everyone shares the essential task of saving the animals, but Ark & Noah also creates a sharp competition for points. Players score by loading animals into the correct corrals, with additional scoring possibilities when those corrals match their own color. Although the Ark must be completed through shared effort, only one player can finish as the winner.

Each round combines a strategic choice with a tactical execution. First, players decide which action to take; that decision also determines the order for the next turn. Players then carry out their selected actions while balancing the needs of the Ark against their personal scoring opportunities.

• Search for Animals and seek the couples needed for the Ark.
• Collect Wood, Food, or Pitch to support the construction and loading effort.
• Build Corrals in your color.
• Load Animals onto the Ark and pursue valuable scoring combinations.

Every decision can affect both the shared race against the Flood and your position in the competition. Will you prioritize resources, improve your corrals, search for the right animals, or claim a crucial loading opportunity?

Originally shown under the name Diluvium, Ark & Noah blends planning, changing turn order, resource collection, construction, and animal loading into a focused strategy experience.
