'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a 1995 action game for the [[Sega Mega Drive]] and [[Super NES]] by [[Infogrames]] based on the ''[[wikipedia:Spirou & Fantasio|Spirou & Fantasio]]'' comic book series. It was only released in Europe.
 +
 +
==Story==
 +
Spirou, a journalist who wears a bell boy's uniform, and his friend Fantasio visit New York for an international conference of scientific research. When the pair arrives at the conference, Count Champignac, their long-time friend and one of the inventors at the conference, has disappeared. It turns out that Cyanida, a maverick "gynoid" robot, has kidnapped the count. With Count Champignac's inventions, Cyanida's intention is to make robots rule the earth and make all humans into slaves. While Spirou tries to save Champignac and stop Cyanida, Fantasio gathers intel in order to help Spirou.
 +
 +
==Gameplay==
 +
The game is a platformer played as Spirou, who is accompanied by his pet squirrel Spip. The goal of each level is to make it to the exit at the end. Spip occasionally points Spirou in the right direction or indicates important objects. Spirou walks with {{left}} or {{right}} and runs by holding {{A}}. He can push objects by walking into them or pick up some items with {{down}}. He ducks with {{down}} while standing or slides with {{down}} when running. He jumps with {{B}} and leaps extra high with {{A}}+{{B}}. He enters doorways with {{up}} and climbs ladders with {{up}} and {{down}}. He grabs the corners of ledges and high wires automatically (and jumps off with {{down}} or pulls himself up to a platform with {{up}}).
 +
 +
After the third level, Spirou meets with Fantasio, who gives him a Micropulser, a gun resembling a hairdryer that shoots enemies to microscopic size. Spirou shoots the Micropulser with {{C}}. The Micropulser can only be used when standing, not when ducking or jumping, but it can be aimed in diagonal directions with the D-Pad. He can shoot while on a ladder; he normally shoots away from the ladder, but he can shoot in a specific direction with {{left}}+{{C}} or {{right}}+{{C}}.
 +
 +
Spirou has a health bar, shown as bars behind his portrait in the top-left of the screen, which allows him to take six hits before he loses a life. If the player has extra lives left when losing a life, the level restarts completely; there are no checkpoints. If there are no extra lives left, the game is over.
 +
 +
The game has three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard). It has a password system, but there is only one valid password (for halfway through the game).

{{sub-stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a 1995 action game for the [[Sega Mega Drive]] and [[SNES]] by [[Infogrames]] based on the [[wikipedia:Spirou (character)|''Spirou'' comic franchise]]. It was only released in Europe. A somewhat different [[Sega Game Gear]] port was also developed and completed, slated for a 1996 release, but its release was cancelled; a prototype ROM containing the full game circulates around the Internet; it is very similar to the 1996 released [[Game Boy]] version.

    Spirou is a 1995 action game for the Sega Mega Drive and Super NES by Infogrames based on the Spirou & Fantasio comic book series. It was only released in Europe.

    Story

    Spirou, a journalist who wears a bell boy's uniform, and his friend Fantasio visit New York for an international conference of scientific research. When the pair arrives at the conference, Count Champignac, their long-time friend and one of the inventors at the conference, has disappeared. It turns out that Cyanida, a maverick "gynoid" robot, has kidnapped the count. With Count Champignac's inventions, Cyanida's intention is to make robots rule the earth and make all humans into slaves. While Spirou tries to save Champignac and stop Cyanida, Fantasio gathers intel in order to help Spirou.

    Gameplay

    The game is a platformer played as Spirou, who is accompanied by his pet squirrel Spip. The goal of each level is to make it to the exit at the end. Spip occasionally points Spirou in the right direction or indicates important objects. Spirou walks with Left or Right and runs by holding A. He can push objects by walking into them or pick up some items with Down. He ducks with Down while standing or slides with Down when running. He jumps with B and leaps extra high with A+B. He enters doorways with Up and climbs ladders with Up and Down. He grabs the corners of ledges and high wires automatically (and jumps off with Down or pulls himself up to a platform with Up).

    After the third level, Spirou meets with Fantasio, who gives him a Micropulser, a gun resembling a hairdryer that shoots enemies to microscopic size. Spirou shoots the Micropulser with C. The Micropulser can only be used when standing, not when ducking or jumping, but it can be aimed in diagonal directions with the D-Pad. He can shoot while on a ladder; he normally shoots away from the ladder, but he can shoot in a specific direction with Left+C or Right+C.

    Spirou has a health bar, shown as bars behind his portrait in the top-left of the screen, which allows him to take six hits before he loses a life. If the player has extra lives left when losing a life, the level restarts completely; there are no checkpoints. If there are no extra lives left, the game is over.

    The game has three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard). It has a password system, but there is only one valid password (for halfway through the game).
