In this game you are Snoopy, the Red Baron is firing at you and you have to try and capture foods that the Red Baron drops.

There are sounds all the way through the game - one sound gets higher and lower as the Red Baron's plane gets higher and lower. The graphics are very good, for example Snoopy has a little scarf around his neck, which stretches out behind him in the wind as he flies along his red and white kennel.

On the screen there are hills, clouds and a vivid blue sky. There are several different skill levels, which have different numbers of Snoopys and different numbers of planes that have to be shot down. If the fire button is pressed down, Snoopy can fire at the Red Baron. The plane flashes yellow when it is hit and after it has been hit a number of times it falls to the ground when the lower part of the screen flashes different colours.

If the Red Baron hits your kennel, a bullet hole appears. Once a line of these holes appears, Snoopy and his kennel falls to the ground and another Snoopy has to carry on with the fight. Snoopy automatically loses all the things he has collected - these could include bones, cream buns, pints of lager, popcorn, lollies or hamburgers.

The Red Baron also drops a skull occasionally if Snoopy catches these he accidentally loses all his food.

Once you shoot down a plane, a small one appears at the bottom of the screen and a new one flies in from the background, this is the next one that you have to shoot at. Once you have destroyed all the planes that you are supposed to, the score sheet will appear; this shows the number of points you have gained and clear, colourful pictures of the items you have gained.

This game is good fun to play and all ages will enjoy it, especially the young, as it is very colourful and features a cartoon character. It is also fairly easy to play and lasts for a long time because of the many different foods to collect and planes to shoot down, although, perhaps, because it never seems to end it becomes a bit monotonous after a while. All in all though, this game is much more than the average 'dog' fight.
