A port of Donald Duck
This video game is a collection of six events that uses various characters from the Peanuts series as opponents. Events include boot throwing (similar to hammer throwing), pizza balancing, and sack racing, among others. In the background, landmarks unique to Italy are shown (i.e., Leaning Tower of Pisa) and the structures using Roman architecture (i.e., the Colosseum) are shown while the player competes at the six events. A majority of the game seems to be ported from the Commodore 64 video game Alternative World Games by Gremlin Interactive.

Snoopy's Silly Sports Spectacular is pretty rough, honestly. The graphics are charming enough, but the controls are awkward and most of the events are just boring. Some of the ideas are wacky, like balancing pizzas or throwing boots, but they don't translate into fun gameplay. Diehard Snoopy fans might get a kick out of the charm, but for the most part, this one's a relic of an era that's best left in the past.
