The Smurfs (Sega Master System, Game Gear)

A more colorful Smurf of the Game Boy version.

Level Select#

There is a level select that can be accessed after the intro with Action Replay code 00D89A01. Note that Act 12 is not selectable.

It seems as though you cannot access this screen outside of cheating, unlike in the Game Boy version where you can access it by beating the game.

Hidden Passwords#

Although the game tells the player only two generic passwords throughout the course of the game which access Acts 5 and 10, respectively, there are actually passwords for every single stage, boss and bonus level.

• BXMC – Act 2
• BXMD – Act 3
• BXMF – Act 4
• BXMG – Boss - Snake
• BXMH – Act 5
• BXMJ – Act 6
• BXMK – Act 7
• BXML – Act 8
• BXMM – Act 9
• BXMN – Boss - Dragon
• BXMP – Act 10
• BXMQ – Act 11
• BXMR – Act 12
• BXMS – Final Boss - Gargamel
• BXMT – Ending
• BXMV – Bonus Stage - The Dam
• BXMW – Bonus Stage - The Mushrooms
• BXMX – Bonus Stage - The Bubbles

Partially Unused Music#

As in the Game Boy version, the music for Act 9, Inside the Volcano, lasts around 1 minute and 33 seconds before looping. However, the player can never hear the full song due to a rising plane of instant-death lava that forces a hard time limit of roughly 40 seconds.
