Start playing in one click
Find two matching animals at the front of the queues and tap them to send them aboard. The first level teaches you by playing, without a difficulty menu or a long tutorial.
Each pair frees the animals waiting behind it. From level four, use up to three waiting spots to change the order. There are no timers, lives, or hidden path restrictions.

2–3 waiting spots · No time limitHow the matching game differs from Genesis
Matching two identical pictures is a puzzle rule, not the full animal-count instruction in the story. Genesis 6:19–20 describes animals coming in pairs; Genesis 7:2–3 distinguishes clean animals and birds from unclean animals. In the World English Bible, Noah is told to take seven pairs of clean animals and two of the unclean animals, male and female. The six levels and waiting areas are game designs, not details supplied by Genesis.
The rainbow at the end points to a later part of the story. Noah’s family and the animals leave the ark in Genesis 8; the rainbow is named as the sign of God’s covenant in Genesis 9:8–17. It does not appear as a reward for boarding, nor does the covenant promise that no local flood will ever occur.

Noah’s Ark game FAQ
Is the Noah’s Ark game free?
Yes. All six levels are free to play in your browser. No download or account is required.
How do I play?
Tap two matching animals at the front of the queues. Each pair boards the ark and frees the animals behind it. From level four, the waiting area grows from one spot in level four to two in level five and three in level six.
How many levels are included?
The game has six levels, beginning with two pairs and gradually introducing deeper queues, up to 28 animals, and up to three waiting spots.
Does the game save progress?
When browser storage is available, completing a level saves the next level. After level six, reopening starts level six again unless you choose Play again to restart from level one. A partly played level starts over when reopened. Progress is not synced across browsers or devices.
Are the pictured animals an exact list from Genesis?
No. The animal species are representative game pieces. Genesis speaks of living creatures according to their kinds and distinguishes clean animals in the Flood account; the game does not claim to reconstruct an exact species list.
