Summary

Magical Taruruuto Kun 2: Mahō Daibouken (often just called Magical Taruruuto Kun 2) is a hidden gem from the NES era that never made it outside Japan. Released in June 1992 by Bandai, the game feels like a love letter to the colorful anime it’s based on, with bright sprites and a soundtrack that still manages to surprise you after a few minutes of play.

What really sets the title apart is its cast of characters, each equipped with a unique ability that you have to swap between on the fly. Whether it’s a dash that breaks through walls or a magic spell that freezes enemies, the design forces you to think about how the team can complement each other to clear each obstacle.

Because it stayed exclusive to the Family Computer, finding a working cartridge is a small quest in itself, but the payoff is a quirky, cooperative platformer that showcases how the NES could still surprise veteran players in the early ’90s.

Storyline

In Magical Taruruuto Kun 2 – Mahou Daibouken (often just called Taruruuto Kun 2), the hero Talututo‑kun must rescue the kidnapped Iyona‑chan. He joins forces with his friends Mimora and Honmaru, and together they set out on a magical adventure across whimsical lands. Their quest is filled with quirky enemies and spell‑casting challenges as they race against time to free Iyona‑chan.
