Dharma Dojo

Overview

Dharma Dojo, or Daruma Dojo, is a puzzle game with stacks of blocks that the player bashes through to a gutter that collects the blocks at the bottom of the screen. By removing blocks of the same type, the player eliminates them. In the game's story, the daruma/dharma dolls and colored blocks are summoned by oni to terrorize the populace, and it's down to the player character (the player can choose from a male and a female character) to remove them. Dharma Dojo was released to the Arcade in 1994 and ported to the Super Famicom the following year.
