Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is a PS2 and Windows game which made a big hit. Although it is a Peanuts themed game, it is rated E 10+ for cartoon violence. This game featured several iconic Peanuts characters, and Snoopy's recurring and imaginary foe, the Red Baron. The game also supports multiplayer, with two friends being able to team up to claim victory against an enemy team in a dogfight, or fight one another in a battle for triumph. Claiming to be in Snoopy's fantasy, the timeline is confusing, like The Battle of Verdon Gorge, but not everything had to be accurate.

Story[]

Charlie Brown and Lucy are watching Snoopy sleep on his doghouse, wondering what kind of wild dream the beagle is having. Snoopy suddenly jumps up, moving his arms as if firing the guns of a Sopwith Camel, before going back to sleep. Charlie Brown then deduces that Snoopy is pretending to be a World War I Flying Ace.

Aerodrome Island[]

By now, Snoopy has started writing a novel on his typewriter, one about the tale of the Flying Ace. Linus has finished proofreading the manuscript, and offers to let Charlie Brown take a look. Brown accepts, and begins reading. However, he is shocked to see that his own dog made him play the part of the Allied janitor in the book. At Aerodrome Island, Scientist Marcie, General Lucy, and Officer Linus help Snoopy hold back an attack being led by the Red Baron, eventually turning the tide and allowing Snoopy, Allied Bomber Peppermint Patty, and Naval Seaman Schroeder to destroy the Baron's base nearby. The Central Powers attempt to avenge their base with a battleship attack on the aerodrome, but Snoopy sinks the ship with help from Woodstock.

The Woods of Montsec[]

Charlie Brown the janitor is still working in the aerodrome, looking at the blueprints of the mighty Doodlebug bomb Marcie had designed. However, a mysterious hand appears, kidnapping Charlie Brown, and the Axis claims the plans to the Doodlebug bomb as well. Meanwhile, Allied Spy Sally Brown has discovered enemy activity in the Woods of Montsec, and Snoopy is sent to destroy the base the Baron's soldiers have built. The beagle burns the fort down, and with advice from Linus, manages to destroy the machine needed to build a new headquarters, ruining the operation in the woods.

The Front Lines of Verdun[]

The Allies and the Central Powers are prepared to clash at the field of Verdun, an important battle that could change the war's results. The Allied pillboxes are initially threatened, but soon saved by Snoopy, allowing Peppermint Patty to take down the front lines of the enemy. The Red Baron's troops attempt to retrieve lost ground with an enormous tank, but the plan is foiled when Snoopy sends the tank to the bottom of a river, ending the battle in an Allied victory.

Mines of the Matterhorn[]

Although defeated at Verdun, the Central Powers still has the Doodlebug blueprints and Charlie Brown, and has begun preparing to build the aforementioned bomb. However, the Allies have noticed enemy movement in the Mines of the Matterhorn, and Snoopy and Sally are sent to destroy an important shipment of parts needed to build the weapon. Snoopy quickly forces the train's crew to surrender, and defeats the drilling bot building the tunnels for navigation.

Verdon Gorge[]

Conrad successfully sneaks into Charlie Brown's cell, and the round-headed kid gets a message to the Allies with no interception, revealing the location of an important base and where he is imprisoned. Lucy, Rerun van Pelt, and Franklin attack the gorge, but are captured by the Red Baron's forces. Snoopy then attacks, and with directions from Linus, ends the operations and destroys an aircraft carrier. However, the Red Baron then takes full command of the Central Powers, and reveals a flying fortress before leaving to execute his plan.

Flying Fortress[]

Snoopy has no choice but to follow, and manages to get past the Baron's forces and free Lucy, Rerun, and Franklin. However, the Red Baron chooses to engage in a dogfight himself, and with Rerun and Franklin’s planes damaged, only Snoopy and Lucy can challenge him. The Baron makes quick work of Lucy, shooting her down. After this, he reveals that a Doodlebug was indeed finished, and it is launched at Allied turf, with Charlie Brown strapped on. Snoopy, unable to take down the bomb without harming his owner, does just enough damage for Brown to get loose and escape. He then defeats the Baron and shoots the bomb down, saving the mainland and winning the war.

Ending[]

Snoopy arrives back at the aerodrome, and a celebration begins. Snoopy then hears Charlie Brown, realizing that it's Suppertime, and he ends writing his story. Later, Charlie Brown and Linus watch Snoopy write on his typewriter, with Charlie Brown explaining that the beagle is now working on a sequel.

Snoopy flying the Sopwith Camel pulling Woodstock on the Woodstock Glider on a string, fly to the battleship to sink it before the tower gets destroyed. Woodstock first uses his glider's machine gun to destroy all the cannons on the battleship, then the ship activates it's bomb blaster and a Bomber Reinforcement drops two Crawler Bots onto it to try to shot them down. Woodstock then destroys the bomb blaster and the Crawler Bots, but after destroying them, the battleship activates its giant cannon and starts shooting the Aerodrome Tower to destroy it, and Blue Fighters show up and start to give chase to shoot Snoopy and Woodstock down. But Woodstock shots down the Blue Fighters first and Woodstock then starts shooting at the battleship to sink it. After Woodstock keeps on shooting at it, the battleship starts blowing up and the ship sinks to the ocean floor and the Aerodrome Tower is saved.

Major Chaos[]

Screen Shot 2021-08-16 at 7.38

A giant robotic bug-like vehicle, that is the second boss of the game. Snoopy and Woodstock fly after Major Chaos since they couldn't let it escape, because if it does, the Red Baron will use it to build another Tree Base. First, Major Chaos tries to shoot Snoopy and Woodstock down by using a balloon launcher to throw giant water balloons at them. Then it tries to shot them down by using it's water cannon, shooting water that will tear the Sopwith apart. Major Chaos would then exceed its water pressure limits, causing it's controls to become unable to respond. Snoopy then shoots the Harvester's abdomen while it was defenseless, destroying it. After destroying the abdomen, the Commander turns Major Chaos around to try to get Snoopy and Woodstock to feel the blast. While the Harvester tries to destroy Snoopy's plane with its chomping metal teeth, Snoopy shoots at its mouth and destroys it, which also destroys its balloon launcher. After destroying the mouth, Major Chaos then tries to destroy Snoopy's plane with its giant chain saws, but Snoopy then shoots at its arms while it was having more mechanical problems. When shooting its arms, Major Chaos's armor cracks, and Snoopy keeps shooting at the it to finish it off.

First Woodstock shoots the guns on Major Catastrophe destroying them, then the Commander activates the giant tank's flame cannons to try to burn Snoopy and Woodstock. Woodstock though manages to shoot the flame cannons stopping them from firing their flames at them, and then a bunch of ovens on Major Catastrophe flip open. Woodstock then shoots the ovens on the tank and destroys them all in the process, but the tank isn't getting hurt. After destroying all of the ovens on the giant tank, the Commander drives Major Catastrophe onto a bridge as the flying circus goes back to its mission to destroy the allied base. The giant tank then starts firing its giant cannon destroying the city. Woodstock then gets an idea and thinks they should shoot the bridge supports to make the bridge collapse with the tank on it so it will fall into the river below. Lucy thinks it's a brilliant idea and Woodstock starts shooting at the supports underneath the bridge. After Woodstock shoots all of the supports under the bridge on both sides, the bridge collapses and Major Catastrophe falls into the river and sinks to the bottom of the river and Verdun is saved.

The engine is pulling eight train cars and Snoopy has to shoot and destroy one car at a time. The first car of the train has a snow blower on it that it uses to try to shoot Snoopy and Woodstock down by blowing snow at them, that Snoopy can destroy by shooting it. Each train car has weapons that try to shoot Snoopy and Woodstock down on it, and some of the cars are flatbeds with metal pieces that seem to be parts of the Doodlebug. After Snoopy keeps on shooting at a train car, it gets destroyed and uncouples from the rest of the train and Snoopy and Woodstock fly towards the next car. After Snoopy shoots and destroys each of the train cars, Snoopy and Woodstock reach the locomotive. The engine also has a snow blower, just like the eighth car and it also deploys those flying mines.

General Mayhem first activates its robotic hands and throws electric balls at Snoopy and Woodstock and then tries to zap them with electric bolts. Snoopy though manages to shoot the machine's robotic hands and destroy them. After General Mayhem's robotic hands are destroyed, the Commander activates the driller machine's robotic arm that throws giant power saw blades like frisbees. Every time General Mayhem throws its giant power saw blades to try to defeat Snoopy and Woodstock with them, Snoopy shoots at the robotic arm that throws them and destroys it, causing the machine's armor to crack, revealing it's not invincible. After General Mayhem's robotic arm that throws it's giant power saw blades is destroyed, the Commander activates the machine's robotic arms that look like excavator arms. General Mayhem then digs it's robotic arms into the ground, making balls of dirt fall from the tunnel ceiling. Then the driller machine makes a big ball of dirt as the Commander gets ready to squish Snoopy and Woodstock, but Snoopy shoots the robotic arms, making the machine drop its big dirt ball and Snoopy keeps on shooting General Mayhem's armor. The Commander then turns the machine around, making it's giant mining drill face Snoopy and Woodstock, and the machine's drill starts drilling into the tunnel walls, making balls of dirt fly everywhere. After the driller machine's drill keeps trying to destroy Snoopy's plane, Snoopy shoots at the machine's left arm, making it spin out of control causing Snoopy to face it's now destroyed armor and Snoopy keeps on shooting at it. After Snoopy keeps shooting at the machine's armor, General Mayhem finally explodes and the machine is finally destroyed, leaving all that's left of it its caterpillar tracks.

Aircraft Carrier[]

Screen Shot 2021-08-16 at 7.44


The sixth boss of the game. Snoopy flying the Sopwith Camel again pulling Woodstock on the Woodstock Glider, start flying around the aircraft carrier to sink it. First, the carrier unleashes Blue, Green, and Purple Fighters to try to shoot Snoopy and Woodstock down, but Woodstock manages to shoot down all the enemy fighter planes first. While fighting them, Marcie can't find a weak spot on the ship, so Woodstock could just shoot anywhere. U-boats also emerge out of the water on both sides of the ship while fighting the Blue, Green and Purple Fighters, which Woodstock could sink by shooting at them. After all the enemy fighter planes are shot down, two Bomber Reinforcements arrive at the aircraft carrier. But Woodstock manages to shoot both of them and destroy them in the process. After the Bomber Reinforcements are destroyed, the Commander activates the aircraft carrier's guns to try again to defeat Snoopy and Woodstock. While shooting at the ship's guns destroying them, Woodstock finds a weak spot on the carrier and shoots there to damage the carrier to sink it. After Woodstock keeps on shooting the ship's weak spot, the aircraft carrier finally takes damage and starts sinking. The carrier's stern rises up into the air and it sinks straight down to the bottom of the river. After the aircraft carrier is gone however, the Red Baron tells his flying circus to release his Flying Fortress. The Flying Fortress then emerges out of the water and flies off with the kidnapped pilots. Woodstock then tells Marcie what they're suddenly seeing and Snoopy and Woodstock fly after it.
