Tintin in Tibet is a video game based on the storyline of the same title from the series The Adventures of Tintin, the comics series by Belgian cartoonist Hergé. It was one of a series of two games released, the other being Prisoners of the Sun. It was released for the Super NES in late 1995, followed by versions for the Mega Drive, Game Boy, Game Gear and PC (MS-DOS and Windows 95) in 1996, and for the Game Boy Color in 2001.
Mean Machines Sega gave the game a 70/100, praising the games visual looks, although stating "The actual gameplay, roving the left -right level from point to point, becomes repetitive". Total! gave the game a 79 out of 100, describing the game as being difficult and having "odd gameplay flaws", although also writing that the game "manages to display most of the traits of a good, solid platformer".
