Play Pinocchio (Europe) on sega Online

Pinocchio for the Sega Genesis, released in 1996 by Virgin Interactive, is a side-scrolling platformer based on the Disney film. It arrived late in the system's life, when developers were pushing the hardware with detailed sprites and colorful backgrounds. The game captures the look of the movie but translates it into the constrained, pixelated style of the era.

You control Pinocchio through various levels, from Geppetto's workshop to Pleasure Island, jumping on platforms and avoiding enemies like Honest John and Stromboli's puppets. The main goal is to rescue Geppetto from Monstro the whale. Signature mechanics include using collected coins to buy items from shops and navigating some auto-scrolling sections, like escaping a burning building or riding a runaway cart. The pacing is uneven, with some frustrating difficulty spikes, especially in the later underwater stages. It feels like a straightforward, sometimes clunky platformer that relies heavily on its license for appeal.
