Remember those Where’s Waldo? books where you’d squint at a crowd of striped shirts and beach umbrellas for way too long? This SNES version takes that same frantic search-and-point chaos and turns it into a weirdly addictive pixel hunt. You’re scrolling through these packed, noisy scenes—medieval markets, space stations, even ancient Egypt—clicking on anything that might be a tiny red-and-white stripe. Spoiler: it’s usually a fisherman or a barber pole.

The controls are simple (just point and click), but some levels get sneaky—Waldo might be half-hidden behind a tree or disguised as a waiter. There’s a timer, so you’ll panic-click a random pilgrim at least once. The music’s this bouncy, repetitive loop that somehow makes the whole thing even more stressful in the best way.

It’s basically the same game as the books, but something about doing it on a CRT TV with a chunky SNES controller just hits different. You’ll either love it or rage-quit after five minutes of scanning pirate ships. No in-between.
