Tintin on the Moon is a first person shoot-em-up/side scroller video game based on Hergé's popular children's comic, The Adventures of Tintin. It was originally made by Infogrames for ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and other home platforms in 1987 and was converted to PC by Probe Entertainment in 1989. The game's storyline is based loosely on the plot of the "Explorers on the Moon" comic book from the series. The object of the game is to land on the moon, while avoiding asteroids and thwarting enemies within the rocket.

Tintin on the Moon was the first PC game to feature the character Tintin.
