Play Beethoven's 2nd - The Ultimate Canine Caper! (europe) Online

I remember picking up Beethoven's 2nd for the Super Nintendo back in 1994. It was published by Hi Tech Expressions, a company that put out a number of licensed titles during that era. This was a time when the SNES was full of games based on movies and cartoons, and this one fit right in with that trend.

You control the St. Bernard Beethoven and his four puppies, switching between them to solve puzzles. The main goal is to rescue the puppies' mother, Missy, who has been dognapped. The gameplay involves moving screen by screen through suburban environments, collecting bones and avoiding hazards like animal control officers and garden sprinklers. Each puppy has a unique ability; one can dig, another can fit into small spaces, which you use to access new areas. The pacing is methodical, and some of the platforming can be tricky, demanding precise jumps. It feels like a straightforward, family friendly adventure where you are constantly managing the whole canine family.
