The Smurfs is a 1993 DOS action platformer published by Infogrames that tasks you with rescuing your fellow Smurfs from Gargamel’s clutches. Highly regarded for its vibrant, cartoon-accurate artwork, the game challenges you to navigate through familiar locations like the Smurf village, dense forests, and treacherous swamps while avoiding hazards and enemies.
How to play
Your objective is to reach the end of each stage before the timer runs out. You must leap across gaps, collect items for extra lives, and avoid touching enemies or obstacles. Since DOS games lack a standard controller layout, use the arrow keys to move, and typically the Spacebar, Ctrl, or Alt key to jump.
Tips
- Your Smurf loses health from almost any enemy contact. Take a cautious approach and prioritise jumping over threats instead of trying to fight them.
- Pay close attention to enemy movement patterns before making difficult jumps; the level timer usually gives you enough time to wait for a safe opening.
