Super Noah's Ark 3D

I know very little about this game. Rumor has it that the Wolfenstein 3D team, angered by the mutilating censorship Nintendo imposed on their game, handed out the code to Christian developer Wisdom Tree, who then proceeded to produce this game, the only SNES game ever not licensed by Nintendo.

About the only part of this rumor that cannot be verified is the revenge theme. The company exists, the game exists, it is indeed unlicensed, and is indeed a (very tame) Wolfenstein 3D clone.

The title is often written Super 3D Noah's Ark, due to the way it was graphically presented.

Interesting enough, Wikipedia lists it as one of the few games that support the SNES Mouse, but not the original Wolfenstein 3D. So did Wisdom Tree actually add some innovation?

• The Wolfenmania Chronicle has an article about this topic, with an interesting history of Wisdom Tree.
• Review from 1999. Super Noah's Ark 3D was later ported to Windows, it is still sold, though of course the price has been reduced considerably since 1999.
• Encyclopedia Obscura confesses confusion:

  What confuses me about Wisdom Tree (aside from the evidently random order of words in Super 3D Noah's Ark) is their choice of company name. Does it refer to the Tree of Knowledge in the Genesis? The one who introduced the concept of evil to man? You know, the tree where the Devil (or a devil, anyway) lived in the form of the Serpent? The symbol and leading metaphor for moral decay and fall of both man and Paradise might not be an ideal name for a company, guys.

• Something Awful thinks you can learn something from it:

  Despite its label as an educational title and the implied intention of its developer, Wisdom Tree, after playing this game beginning to end I can truly say I feel no wiser. The game does, however, leave you with one important lesson: never trust goats.

• Wisdom Tree, "Makers of top selling Video Games for the Christian Community". They still have a Noah's Ark Game (system requirements: a 386 with Windows 3.1 or a color Macintosh with a 13" monitor and system 6.0.7) in their collection, but there seems to be little connection with the SNES game:

  Noah's Ark teaches children counting, simple spelling and matching while helping develop early thinking skills with ten different activities. Children can wander freely though Noah's Ark to discover learning activities that relate to the story of Noah. Additional skill levels build on learned activities so children can continue to learn while parents are away from the computer.

  In Two by Two, children must match two of the same kind of animals. The animals are hidden behind doors and children must remember where the pairs are located. Puzzles Galore teaches about shapes. Children can arrange jigsaw puzzle pieces so that they form a Noah's Ark picture. In another part of the Ark, Noah is naming the animals. Children can help Noah by finding the missing letter of the word. Zoo Trip, a movie application complete with music and sound, gives children a look at animals in the zoo.
