Play Pinocchio (Europe) Online

Pinocchio for the Super Nintendo came out in 1996, developed by Viacom New Media. It was one of those later SNES releases that tried to capture the feel of Disney's animated movie, arriving at a time when the system was still popular but newer consoles were starting to take over. The game doesn't get talked about much, but it has a certain charm if you're into platformers from that era.

You control Pinocchio through side scrolling levels, jumping on platforms and avoiding enemies like puppets and foxes. Your main goal is to rescue Geppetto from Monstro the whale, which means working through stages based on locations from the film, such as Stromboli's caravan and Pleasure Island. Signature mechanics include collecting gold coins to trade for items, and a transformation sequence where you temporarily turn into a donkey, which changes how you move and adds a layer of strategy. The pacing is fairly straightforward, though some sections can be tricky with precise jumps and enemy patterns. It feels like a straightforward, sometimes challenging adaptation that captures the oddness of the story.
