I remembered this game kicking my ass as a kid. It's fun seeing it now and getting all those long lost memories back. The furthest I remember ever making it was the mine cart section.
+Anno1602player I got to act 9 when I was about 6 years old. I hated this game because of not being able to save (yeah, you got passwords that's true) and because it's though as hell. (I got it for IBM PC, almost the same as the SNES version).
The game is not hard. The game is difficult for today generation that play First Person Shooters with regenerating health, autoaim and text box that keep have to remind them what direction they need to go. I remind you that the game like Contra, Earthbound, Final Fantasy or Smurfs was played and finished by 6 year olds in the years ago. If you spend a bit more time on the game you will learn the pattern and how to play it. If you dont have patience for that....I guess you would know why its "insane difficult" for you.
i played this as a kid, around 1996, still own my copy. the game is hard, but not that hard. i remember i made it to act 11 45:23 and i remember i didnt know what to do, or the game was glitched. i was just playing the game until there, getting on the cart and die, then again die, etc.
we were never able to pass that railroad level. That level is insane, I was 7 back then now I'm 27 and would probably still struggle. oh the memories lmao
you just need to click the button continuosly (to change the railroad) while keep dodging... and that's actually the easiest level once you know this secret... the cave is my favourite level due to darkness effect...
Agree. I have seen so many cimments about that level. Really, you just have to focus on one thing. No stearing, no jumping, just pressning one button at the right time, and a signal tells you when to be ready. You also have time for severel misstakes. Not hard at all.
I was 8 years old. 1996. My parents bought me a new game. I was excited but recognised that it was based on a popular cartoon series so didn't expect much. After all, Mickey Mania had been easy. On that day, I became a man. I still haven't finished the Smurfs. I lack the will, the strength, the determination.
I never even saw the volcano level. But i still remember the time i used a password to get to the snowboard level and then get to gargamel. It was great, too bad the old snes doesnt work anymore, it died.
@@Christoph8 Not really. In The Smurfs,this music sounds like a reggae. In Yoshi's Island, the Underground Theme doesn't sound like a reggae. More like an underground ballad.
I remember this game! Except... I played it on my PC many years ago. Wasn't even aware at the time there was a SNES version. Looks very good for that console. Out of all the Smurfs games that exist, I think this is the only one I truly enjoyed when I was a kid.
Replayed the game recently and was able to beat the cave, both sections. In my humble opinion, bridge, haunted lake, field, swamp ( damn this level) and cave are the hardest levels.
Had this game on SNES as a kid. Took my brother and me years of practice to finally best, although I honestly think this game is hard for all the wrong reasons. The target audience (you know, young kids) wouldn't be able to to beat it. I'll also always remember how that really peaceful level with cute ducks suddenly turns creepy at 18:00. Sure, it's quite silly, but it comes out of nowhere and definitely gave me the willies when I was five.
I downloaded this game a month ago saying: hey! it must be an easy platform game for kids. God, the first level is hell and the more you advance the more you wonder: is this a game for kids? I still think it's good and when you finish it gives you that feeling of satisfaction for finishing a game that was really hard.
@@shoujocafe Funny that you say the first level is hell; it took me way too long to figure out how to traverse those stupid puddles without slipping... If you're interested in more of these games, check out The Smurfs Travel the World. It's a sequel to this one, but more forgiving (mostly, it has its moments). I actually managed to beat that one as a kid without help.
I did manage to beat it as a kid (8 or 9 years old iirc) but it took me SO many playthroughs... and you couldn't even "save" the game. One of the more frustrating games on SNES :P much prefer donkey kong or super mario world
I actually did beat this back in the day but it's definitely not an easy game and took me a lot of practice. I loved the music and thought the boss fights were really well done though. Huge satisfaction when you finally manage to knock Gargamel off the roof at the end.
As a kid I could make it right to Gargamal but I could’nt best him, lol the rhythm of landing the birds rock on the seesaw and hitting him is a lot harder than it looks!
damn those codes used to be like gold pff.. aaand i remember me and my dad drawing the way to go throught that first cave.. shiiieet good times. snes g.o.a.t.
I don't know about you guys, but seeing Act 4, the Black Forest, and the Bzzz Fly with the Black Smurfs, it kinda gives me chills... It's literally a zombie-like infection, and it kinda creeps me out for some reason.
The game reviewed in an issue of Nintendo Power (April 1996), although it is not listed in Now Playing, so it is unclear if they actually expected it to be released in North America.
This game was so hard that horrible mine level I NEVER got past it. LMFAO in my opinion, it's harder than those mine cart levels of the Donkey Kong Country series.
I've heard that from many others. I dont understand it at all, there is only one thing you have to focus on, no steering, no jumping, its just one single button to press on when you pass those red lamps, and there is room for severel misstakes as you have at least 3 hearts.
Seeing the Black Smurfs reminds us this Smurfs game was made for European fans as much (or more) than it was intended for Americans. ("The Black Smurf" was the first solo Smurfs story Peyo published. American adaptations switched to Purple to quell any suggestions of racism.)
+bl00derly its an - invincibility frame - its common in nowadays games as well. Even the smurfs has it - when it gets hit, it cannot get another one in xy seconds. nowadays its more common to use this while doing some skills - for example if you do a vault skill, during the animation there are 2-3 secs of
@ 51:30 -- More evidence that the game had European fans in mind is that Greedy was originally (and currently) a normal-looking Smurf who loved to eat. (Early depictions in the comics showed him holding a (Belgian) waffle.) The Hanna-Barbera version combined Baker 👨🍳 and Greedy.
Damn, you KNOW it's brutally hard when World of Longplays actually dies during a long play. MM8FC didn't even do that. 50:22 - Wow, that's fucked up, I'd be PISSED if I were playing.
I had trouble jumping high, I believe other people have the same problem. To jump higher, hold Y and press B. Eu tive problemas para pular alto, creio que outras pessoas estão com o mesmo problema. Para pular mais alto segure Y e aperte B.
I have replayed that game recently. Managed to beat the lake/ haunted lake, the field, dam, the swamp, the cave. Currently I am at the mountain level. The game is hard as hell.
Then you had severel of the hardest levels behind you. The mountain, The Mine cart level and the snow level are not that hard. So did you beat the game?
@@p6mkq The mine is really easy when you know what to do. there is only one thing you have to focus on, no steering, no jumping, its just one single button to press on when you pass those red lamps and duck a few times and there is room for severel misstakes as you have at least 3 hearts. Good luck if you give it another try.
The field was always the hardest stage for me due to having to navigate through all these narrow/tight spaces, avoiding rotating worms, bouncing hedgehogs and spiders and the unpleasant music did not help either. Not to mention tight gaps between hazards and all the water droplets.
You...have...POWERS! Yeah, baby! And there's not a scratch on you! Did you go right through the locked door? Are those your powers? Hahaha! You can multiply like rabbits and go right through any... solid... My family! I remember my family! They're out there somewhere! I have to find them!
I coudnt find a ntsc version for this game, i like this game so much i sent my snes to europe to get it region free mod, it was long wait but finally got it back now i can play nstc and pal games :)

this game is not suitable for kids...
not because of violent content
but because of the insane difficulty.

I still haven't finished the Smurfs. I lack the will, the strength, the determination.
I had about 80 snes games too my snes.... this was the one game i never defeated.... shame
I remember this game being incredible hard. I only watched my big bro getting into later levels
I never even saw the volcano level. But i still remember the time i used a password to get to the snowboard level and then get to gargamel. It was great, too bad the old snes doesnt work anymore, it died.
10:48 This track deserves an orchestral version.
19:46 Yeah Man! Schtroumpf Rasta dans la place.
Sounds like the cave theme from Yoshi’s Island
@@Christoph8 Not really. In The Smurfs,this music sounds like a reggae. In Yoshi's Island, the Underground Theme doesn't sound like a reggae. More like an underground ballad.
This game creeped me out as a kid.
Esse jogo me dá certos arrepios e sua trilha sonora realmente me amedronta. Principalmente o Game Over.
Que bizarro, parece mesmo trilha de jogo de terror
I remember this game! Except... I played it on my PC many years ago. Wasn't even aware at the time there was a SNES version. Looks very good for that console. Out of all the Smurfs games that exist, I think this is the only one I truly enjoyed when I was a kid.
The storm lake was too scary
ahhhh the fine line between love and hate
OH MY GOD THE NOSTALGIA
That mine level is giving me flashbacks...
Wow...that first level gives the impressions that Smurfs are assholes! :P
Don't let the blue skin and small stature fool you. All gargamel wants to do is eat, and they are being dicks to him and his kitteh. :/
Mnd Ctrl Yeah, they're mothersmurfing smurfholes.
it'ss like the very first episode of the original smurf cartoon and how badly they treated a black haired smurfette even papa smurf was bad to her!
Minha infância! Hoje queria jogar novamente para relembrar...
Bonita vc.
Aluguei muito essa fita na locadora mas era a versão do mega drive
Comprei um super Nintendo hoje agora vou começar a comprar as fitas MT top da MT sdds
one of my all time favorite game, i had it for christmas in 1995.
Clumsy Smurf is one of the two main protagonists of The Smurfs franchise
The other one is Hefty!
The bubble parcours at 55:55 was a nightmare. Controllers were thrown
*Imagine doing that on a GBA*
THE MINECART 😡
ı've finished 7 years ago :) thank you again :)
Played this as a kid. Farthest I got was the cave level. Probably took months. To see this being beaten in about an hour is cathartic.
Replayed the game recently and was able to beat the cave, both sections. In my humble opinion, bridge, haunted lake, field, swamp ( damn this level) and cave are the hardest levels.
@@p6mkq In my opinion the hardest level is the entire game. :D
@@HighLanderPonyYT The field is just NASTY. Damn this level.
Yeah, the droplet spam, bouncing hedgehogs, and leaps of faith are crazy.
Thankfully, I had save states on my side, hehe.
45:44 *He just went out of existence like: SCREW THIS*
series/comic: The smurfs are friends vvith all animals in the vvorld
snes game: all animals vvanna kill u
Love the classic Flight of the Bumblebee in some stages.

Tudo muito simples e muito marcante pra quem jogou na época.

Also the field has a very creepy music.
And they infect (= kill) with only one hit.
brainy, that smurf is named brainy in english ?!? now i want to get my hands on an english version of the albums
Used to play it when I was 8-9...and I reached only after the first forest.. It was really hard
THIS IS THE ONE THAT I WATCHED A VIDEO OF WHEN I WAS KID! also i think this might be the exact video
the worst, infamous thing of this game is the last stage. if you don't run fast to the opposite trunk part, you lose...
I remember about a century ago, I played Smurfs on the Intellivision. Lmao
Does anyone know or have a list of where all the stars are in the game?
Que nostalgia faz uns 5 anos que joguei isso
А будет прохождения 2 части ?
The game reviewed in an issue of Nintendo Power (April 1996), although it is not listed in Now Playing, so it is unclear if they actually expected it to be released in North America.
Liked the flute solo in this one
Urgh! The Cliff. How I hated that level back in the day.
The turning tree has randomized pattern. Good luck, you will need it.
Don’t forget the bubble level after the cliff-
Hm, I think I might've played the DOS version of this!
How u make this high jumps??
Please tell me there was another game of them on the SNES. I played one on the SNES but this wasn’t it! Feel like I’m losing my mind rn
There was indeed another Smurfs game on the SNES, it was called The Smurfs Travel The World.
@@GrindingGhoul wasn’t that on the sega mega drive as well?
@@sgnjamcitydevteam6913 Yes indeed, that one was released on the Mega Drive as well.
I love this game

19:43
nobody talks about this bonus stage but when i was young i never saw his end. And my respects if you have succeed it without cheating.
Esse jogo era muito bommm
My mom and grandmother played this game till the end. I never could pass the 1st level 😂😂
that boss fight at 14:00

Lol i remember we (my little brother and i) got a snes and my mom was playin this every day when we where at school haha
El mejor juego pa los que le tocó esa época

For some reason no stork bonus in dos version

Please...can someone tell me where can I get this game for Android, Apple, or even pc? Feeling nostalgia...
You can install certain emulators and emulate this game using Rom files
that timer...

Alguien sabe si este juego se encuentra en cartucho de Game boy advance?
There are 5 stars in each level
Why is a game based on a comic for young kids so hard?
because ze French are insane!
To prepare them for Dark Souls for 20 years later
Because Infogrames were stupid enough to market this for children 👏
45:44 Fair game design at its finest. ;-(
Потратить жизнь, чтобы взять жизнь... Блять, гениально
Does anyone else think that the forest theme sounds a bit like the Inspector Gadget theme?
Passei muito ódio jogando esse jogo... Dark souls é fichinha perto desse. Kkkkk
I really want James from AVGN review this game😂
Este juego siempre lo quería jugar y se cracheaba jaja con pantalla megra

De lo más difícil de jugar
Very very hard
Alguém pode mi disse como posso colocar este jogo no meu celular por favor
Please how i can get this game in android or pc
Download an emulator and then find a rom of this game :p
I wonder if you liked the cave stage where you could BARELY SEE ANYTHING.
Guess brainy is useless
Hated the field level with a passion ! Especially on pc. The water droplets hurt them as Smurfs are the creation of a devil. ;-)
this game had no game flow.
Joguin difícil da desgraça
The field music does not suit the level. It is a bright, sunlit field, not a creepy cave.
play asterix and obelix (:
ese jogo dos smurfs e bom
que jogo difícil
😍
One of the most difficult SNES games ever, I mean it's a torture to play, this is 100% die and retry. Horrible.
