Phineas and Ferb (also known as Phineas and Ferb: The Video Game) is an action platform video game published by Disney Interactive Studios about the animated television series of the same name for the Nintendo DS, and developed by Altron. The game was released in North America on February 3, 2009, its United Kingdom release was on March 23 and its Australian release on September 23.

The game's plot is similar to the show, as the player controls Phineas Flynn and his stepbrother Ferb Fletcher as they take part in several schemes and adventures for their summer vacation. The two as well attempt to avoid their sister Candace, who is persistent in trying to "bust" them. Mini games are scattered throughout the game, building up the side foundation.[1]

The game was not affiliated with the creators of the show itself, Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh. The two had little to no information on it until its release.[2] The game as well features an in-between mini game, featuring Perry the Platypus fighting and foiling the plans of Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, an evil mad scientist.[1]
