Play Don Doko Don 2 (Japan) Online
Tiny carpenters whack enemies into frozen blocks or dizzy eggplants, then send them flying—it's chaotic, silly fun, especially with a friend. The chiptune music and weirdly charming pixel art make it feel like a lost NES gem.
Don Doko Don 2 came out for the NES in 1992, developed and published by Taito. It was part of that late NES era when developers were still squeezing creative ideas out of the hardware, often with a focus on quirky, cooperative play. The game is a sequel, but it stands on its own with a distinct visual and mechanical identity.
You control a small carpenter armed with a hammer, moving screen by screen through themed worlds. Your goal is to clear each stage of enemies, often by whacking them until they turn into frozen blocks or dizzy, helpless creatures; you can then pick them up and throw them to break obstacles or hit other foes. The game supports two player co-op, which turns the screen into a delightful mess of coordinated (or accidental) chaos. It moves at a brisk pace, and the difficulty feels fair but steadily increasing. Playing it feels like solving a playful, slightly absurd puzzle with a friend.
