This page is for the Super Noah's Ark 3D song, for more titles see Introduction.

Introduction plays in Super Noah's Ark 3D when you see a introduction message when you start a new episode and in the levels E3M5 and E6M7. The song is the same for both the DOS and SNES releases, but the different audio hardware plays them each with a distinct sound.

Loops Yes

In the DOS release, the song is output to OPL2, therefore lacking flute instrument heard on the Super Nintendo, and plays in the same locations as in the SNES release (introduction message, secret levels).

The type-0 DOS MIDI file's meta data refers to the track as "NOAH09.imf", even though it is not an IMF file. This is to make it compatible with Wolfenstein 3D music engine.
