About this game

In Hoodoo Voodoo, the forces of Kerllis IX have invaded a planet that is home to a superhero. Armed with a laser bolt, you must fight through the invasion and confront The Mighty Alien Presence.

Gameplay

The game contains three levels. The first two are horizontal scrolling shooters, while the final stage takes place on a single screen. Seven skill levels, numbered 00 to 06, are available at the start.

Objectives

  • In the first level, collect seven Daggers of Power and place them in the portal entrance. Only one dagger can be carried at a time, and all seven must be placed within a time limit.
  • In the second level, search for five crosses and five pieces of garlic. These items are invisible, but the bottom of the screen changes colour when you are near one.
  • In the final level, attempt to destroy The Mighty Alien Presence with a single shot while avoiding its destructible minions.

Alien waves attack throughout the first two levels, and contact costs one of five lives. The final confrontation gives you only one chance. Developed by Stuart A. Cook and published by Bug-Byte Software Ltd., the game was released for Commodore 64 and Commodore C64/128/MAX.
