Play Eek! The Cat (Europe) Online

Eek! The Cat came out on the Super Nintendo in 1994, published by Ocean Software. It was one of those licensed platformers from the era, based on the animated series, and it fit right in with the mix of cartoon adaptations and mascot games that filled the SNES library at the time.

You control Eek, a well-meaning but accident-prone purple cat, as he tries to do good deeds across a series of side-scrolling stages. Your main goal is simply to reach the end of each level, but you'll stretch your tail to bonk enemies, avoid traps set by the shark antagonist Sharky, and sometimes find yourself launched into unexpected mini-game segments when things go particularly wrong. The jumping feels a bit floaty and imprecise, which adds to the challenge, but the sheer unpredictability and slapstick tone make it an oddly entertaining, if sometimes frustrating, experience. It feels like playing through a chaotic Saturday morning cartoon where anything can happen.
