Spirou: The Robot Invasion

Spirou to the rescue!

Spirou has returned with his buddy Fantasio to solve another problem, this time involving a runaway robot photographer... hmm! One of the good things about this game has to be the detailed graphics - with excellent running animation and sound, it is far better than the original. From the beginning of the game you will be using a sledgehammer as a weapon, which can deliver a deadly blow to anyone standing in your way. We found the password option to be very irritating though, because the code is hidden somewhere on the level... so try not to throw your Game Boy out of the window when you can't find it!

Spirou offers a selection of bright, colourful levels full of pick-ups and detailed characters, along with lots of useful information to help you out!

Spirou: The Robot Invasion

Spirou has made an excellent return since Ubisoft's first instalment. With sharp, clean graphics, good sound and satisfying control over Spirou, we can safely say that this game is definitely worth a second look.
