Play Hook Online

Hook on the NES came out in 1992, developed by Sculptured Software. It was one of many licensed games from that period, based on the film of the same name. You step into the role of Peter Pan, who has forgotten his past but must return to Neverland to save his kidnapped children from Captain Hook.

You control Peter through side scrolling levels, moving screen by screen across pirate ships, jungles, and underground caves. Your main goal is to fight through Hook's crew of pirates and other enemies to reach your kids. You start with a simple sword for close combat, but you can find a bow for ranged attacks and collect fairy dust to fly for short periods. The game can be quite difficult, with precise platforming required and enemies that respawn quickly. Navigating the maze like levels and managing your limited flight makes for a challenging adventure that feels frantic and demanding.
