Parodius: Tako wa Chikyuu wo Sukuu (パロディウス～タコは地球を救う～) is a shooting game, originally developed and published by Konami for the MSX personal computers in 1988, only on Japan. It is a spin-off of the Gradius series and the first entry in the Parodius subseries.

Parodius: Tako wa Chikyuu wo Sukuu received a port for the Sega Saturn as part of Konami Antiques MSX Collection Ultra Pack. Unlike many MSX games, Parodius: Tako wa Chikyuu wo Sukuu was not converted to the Sega Master System, likely due to the use of the SCC sound chip alongside the abundance of references to Japanese culture. However, the game was converted to the Master System years later by users at SMS Power! in the 2020s, albeit without SCC sounds.
