Snoopy Concert (スヌーピーコンサート)[3] is a Japan-exclusive point-and-click adventure game based on the Peanuts cartoon characters Snoopy, licensed from Peanuts and United Feature Syndicate (now a part of United Media), which was released for the Super Famicom in 1995. Some English-patched ROM images have been released on the internet.

Summary

Gameplay

Gameplay with Snoopy.

The game is a less of a self-contained game and more of a collection of four smaller ones, including a point-and-click segment featuring Schroeder. The player controls Woodstock and directs Snoopy as he performs all sorts of errands for different Peanuts characters. The player does a separate game for each character; some of them require him to do a little detective work, to direct Snoopy to win a race, or to get a character to some place. The ultimate goal in the game is to get everyone in shape for Snoopy's concert. Games can either be played using stereo or monoaural sound.

The music was composed by Hirokazu Tanaka and Minako Hamano, in addition to arrangements of the familiar works of Vince Guaraldi.
