Go! Go! Kokopolo – Harmonious Forest Revenge is a 2011 action puzzle platform video game developed and published by Tanukii Studios on DSiWare, for the Nintendo DSi game system. The game is described by the developers as the "world's first chase-'em-up" and utilizes a hybrid of different gameplay styles, such as maze games, platformers and puzzle elements to create a unique arcade experience. In September 2022, the game was re-released for Nintendo 3DS, both physically and digitally, to commemorate its tenth anniversary.[2]
The developers cite arcade classics such as Pac-Man, Flicky, Door Door and ChuChu Rocket! as inspiration for the main gameplay mechanics, and video game characters, such as Wario, for the mischievous humor abundant in the game.[3] Go! Go! Kokopolo was met with very favorable reviews upon its release. Several minor criticisms were leveled at the difficulty of the game, especially in later stages, but an easy mode was included to help lend an easy learning curve for more novice players. The game also featured highly in the Best of 2011 lists on Joystiq,[4] Wiiloveit.com,[5] IGN[6] and Nintendo Life.[7] A sequel was released in 2017 for the Nintendo 3DS, called Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D: Space Recipe for Disaster
