Hoco Poco is a harry potter duel style free-4-all local multiplayer. However you can also play against the AI.
In Hoco Poco you play as a mage. Your goal is to push all the other contestants off of the island, into the water, and be the last mage standing!
You can achieve this by casting spells. You can cast spells by "drawing" signs.
For example, drawing a spiral with create a tornado and drawing a star will create a meteor shower!
If you play with a keyboard you'll have to draw with the mouse and if you are using a controller you have to draw with the right analog stick.
The more 'mana' you have the stronger the spells will be.
You can gain more mana by destroying mana crystal using destructive spells, and collecting the mana shards that they drop.
