"Dokkaebi-ga Ganda" or "The Goblin Goes" is a fairly standard platformer developed and published by the Korean group, Senori Box, for DOS back in 1995. It was primarily marketed towards children with its "Just For Fun" slogan, using cutesier versions of the famed Korean Dokkaebi (or goblin) of lore. Ironically, the game is actually quite difficult with enemies and traps around every turn, difficult platforming segments, and instant death pits are plentiful. The game is seldom unfair, but it relies heavily on quick reflexes and timing, and the viewpoint is a little difficult for certain platforming segments. Fortunately, collision detection is... adequate, and the controls respond well.

Using Cobi and Comi, a male and female goblin respectively, players traverse six primary levels that are broken into parts and themes, with two platforming segments followed by a boss battle. Both characters perform identically by swinging a weapon, jumping, and executing a special attack that drains a little health (it's a lifesaver for particularly annoying jumping segments as it offers brief invulnerability). Most objects the player finds offer points, but rice bowls restore health, a clock adds twenty seconds, and a red pot offers invincibility for a few seconds and is usually strategically placed (use it to mow down as many enemies as possible).

The game is a whole works, with fairly nice visuals and cool music. This is a video of the game in action. Enjoy.
