Spy vs. Spy is an action game released in 1988 for the Nintendo NES. The gameplay revolves around two spies competing against each other in a series of rooms filled with traps and secret items. The main objective is to collect all parts of a briefcase and escape before the opponent does.

The pace of the game is moderately fast, requiring quick thinking and strategic planning to set traps and avoid those set by the rival spy. Players move through various rooms, laying explosives, pitfalls, and other hazards to slow down or eliminate their opponent.

A unique mechanic in Spy vs. Spy is its split-screen setup, allowing both players to see their own spy's perspective simultaneously, which enhances the competitive aspect. The unusual idea of direct player-versus-player sabotage combined with maze-like environments makes the game distinctive on the NES platform.
