If you don’t like the Smurfs then you are a bad person.
Despite the different generational changes, modes and modes of entertainment, we’ve always had tiny blue beings keeping us company. Directly or indirectly, we know them from their first stage in comics, in their major series, musical cassettes, films, etc. Of course, I cannot forget video games, a comfort zone where we have lived thousands of adventures and which are repeated today thanks to The Smurfs: Operation Vilhoja. Are you ready to smurf with us?
I’ll catch them, even if it’s the last thing I do!
Pierre “Peyo” Culliford created these sympathetic beings in 1958, and now he is Osomo Workshop, Microides and the physical distribution of Afternoon games in our territory those who breathe life into them through their next job. With a certain three-dimensional aesthetic that evokes the “smurf style” of the last feature films, the focus of this episode follows the usual pattern with which we are generally familiar. On this occasion, Gargamel (it could not be another) created Vilhoja, a plant capable of catching Smurfs, and even know its location. The Smurfs’ village is in danger, but thank God we are ready to destroy these evil plans … But how do we do it?
How to smurf this problem?
Handy Smurf has the solution to our problems: smurf smurf. Thanks to this particular invention, we will be able to cure the weeds and thus slow down the advance of La Vilhoja. Little by little, we will improve the characteristics of this device, with the possibility of accessing areas previously accessible. This is explained by The Smurfs: Operation Vilhoja is a proposition where exploration takes a lot of weight, either for the personal benefit of having everything complete, or to obtain the basic elements to access new skills.
Richer than sarsaparilla
The basic task that any of the Smurfs we control has at their disposal is to sprinkle the liquid element to cure anything infected with Vilhoja. In a way, it’s gratifying to see how you “heal” the forest with the blow of a smurf machine. Although we can say that it can be a bit repetitive to always do the same thing as we go through the plot. In part (and by saving distances, of course) This accessory worn by our blue protagonists reminded me of the robotic backpack from Super Mario Sunshine, with which we cleaned the stage of all the remaining crap. In fact, we see similarities beyond the throw that they can throw in both games, like the airborne attack, thrusters, etc.
A smurfs game for the smurfs
Despite the variety of smurf machine moves, abilities, and upgrades, the truth is, it’s applied in a basic fashion afterwards. Not bad knowing that is a game specially designed for the little ones in the house, but the repetition of actions is a fact that cannot be denied. More than that, I found the use of the Smurfs themselves misused. We will control several inhabitants of the village of the Smurfs … and none of them stand out at all. Hefty Smurf, Brainy Whore, Cook Smurf, Smurfette… they all do the same thing, without distinction. This is a layer that could have been exploited a little more.

Fortunately, any fan of these beings will find beautiful tributes throughout the adventure. Starting with Papa Smurf, there will be a great handful of residents of the Smurf Village to help, chat and interact with. And speaking of interaction, I can’t overlook the local cooperative option that owns the game. A good time to enjoy with the Smurfs: Operation Vilhoja.
He enters through sight and hearing, like a smurf pie baking
Regarding the graphic part, everything as you can see on the screen is very colorful, as you would expect. Each area we explore is large enough to have a good time, with a thousand and one collectibles to explore. Maybe the frame rate is the only thing in this aspect that squeals at me, not being as fluid as I would have liked to experience it. What I have to praise is the great voice acting that the game has. Not only that, but the introductory scenes and signs have been localized (and rhymed) to fit and make sense in our language.
Conclusion of the Smurfs: Operation Vilhoja
Designed for the little ones in the house, the new Smurfs adventure will give us hours and hours of direct fun. The smurf machine is the main protagonist of this adventure, and thanks to its powers we will be able to overcome the obstacles that threaten us and heal the plants infected with the Vilhoja. It may not reinvent the genre wheel or perhaps squeeze all the juice out of selectable protagonists, but its colorful graphics, our language dubbing, and the local co-op option are factors that tip the scales favorably. whether you are or not. don’t be a fan of these adorable little beings.
