Summary
In a small Mexican village, all the mice were enjoying a fiesta until Los Gatos Bandidos, a group of cats, came and kidnapped them all.[4] Only Slowpoke escaped and sent for his cousin, the fastest mouse in Mexico... Speedy Gonzales![4] Speedy will enter each level and try to rescue as many mice as possible while chasing after cheese and avoiding natural hazards.[4] The gameplay in Speedy Gonzales resembles the Sonic the Hedgehog series of games.[4]
Players can access a short-range kick for attacking and can occasionally pick up items for usage at a later time in the game.[4] The game is full of bottomless pits; which kill players instantly.[5] Getting locked up in a cage also causes players to lose a life.[5] Spikes also have the ability to instantly kill the player.[5] Arch-enemies from the cartoon show such as Sylvester and Robocat will appear in this game.[6]
The game was reskined into the unauthorized Super NES video game Sonic the Hedgehog 4 (Super NES).[7]
