Beat the first two bosses to rescue the first two smurfs, then you can take on Gargamel.
Make your way through forests, swamps, mountains, mines and more.
Also ride storks, mine carts and logs to defeat Gargamel and his minions and to rescue the missing smurfs.
On each level you must collect five stars in order to get access to the bonus level (You don't have to collect the five stars in order to get through the main level).

There are three bonus levels: "The Dam", "The Mushrooms" and "The Butterflies".
About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks The Smurfs for Game Boy with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Smurfs to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GB release dates back to 1994.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
The Smurfs has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
