This page details one or more prototype versions of Bible Adventures (NES).

The first release of Bible Adventures (Version 1.0) was a prototype, which had many differences from the final game. A finished version was released a year later.

General Differences

The endings aren't present at this point. Beating any of the games will simply take you back to the title screen. Additionally, the backgrounds in the menu and intermissions have been made slightly darker.

Noah's Ark

Level Differences

In the third stage, there are two enemy types that only appear in the prototype: zebras and black birds.

In the final level, the dark is always lighted up since the firefly jar isn't present yet.

Camera Movement

The camera moves faster in the final version, causing Noah to outrun the screen if he moves too fast.

Stone Platform
