Play Flood Online

Flood came out on the Amiga in 1990 from Electronic Arts. It was a time when platformers were common, but this one had a different kind of pressure. You weren't just running and jumping; you were racing against a relentless force.

You control Quiffy, a small, round creature trying to climb out of a series of deep, flooded chambers. Your main goal is to scale the walls and platforms before the water rises and drowns you. You use a simple jump to ascend, but the real challenge comes from the enemies, like ghost mimics that copy your movements and other creatures that get in your way. The pacing is tense and unforgiving; a single mistimed jump can send you right back to the start of a stage. It feels like a constant, frantic scramble for safety.
