TAROTICA VOO DOO is a hand-drawn Japanese adventure game in which you explore a haunted mansion, solve puzzles and fight monsters to cook dinner and save a family before an airplane crashes into the mansion. You use the cursor to search rooms for enemies, clues and interactive objects, then operate selected objects up close. Solving puzzles and defeating enemies unlocks new interactions and gradually reveals more of the mansion.

Explore the mansion

The mansion is shown as a map, with your current room highlighted in red. Doors lead to other locations, and the cursor lets you inspect rooms for things to interact with. The game uses simple controls and an interface, with fully hand-drawn animation.

Skill-based combat

You fight a variety of unusual foes by manually operating your sword and shield. Victory depends on learning each enemy’s timing and attack patterns; combat has no items or levelling up. If you fail, you can retry quickly.

Hell mode

The included HELL MODE is an ultra-hard challenge designed for players who have completed the game. It is played without saving or loading.

MSX tools

The game runs in an official MSX emulator, with save states and multiple speed settings. You can pause execution and run BASIC code, and the included tools include the game’s BASIC source code. They let you modify the game or create new games using the MSX platform.

The creator’s booklet

The included PDF, CHRONICLES OF TAROTICA VOO DOO, is a lengthy document translated from the original handwritten Japanese booklet and handwritten in English by creator Ikushi Togo. It covers the story behind the game’s creation and provides a technical walkthrough of its programming.
