Doeo is a 2008 Adobe Flash game by Raitendo. You use your mouse cursor to hover over Doeos and gather them. To beat a level, you have to gather 100/200 of them within 40 seconds, plus there's a battle with King Doeo at the end. It sounds simple, but they come from many weird places and can pass by quickly.

Also had a crossover with KikoRiki called Doeoriki that has practically identical mechanics.


This game provides examples of:

  • Amazing Technicolor Battlefield: The final battle with King Doeo has a psychodelic and colorful background.
  • Difficulty Levels: You can pick easy or hard mode, which mainly affect if you have to get 100 or 200 Doeos.
  • Gaia's Vengeance: The city and subway stages get reclaimed by nature as the Doeos are shown. Note that the first two stages are nature landscapes that get played around with.
  • Hard Mode Perks: Hard mode has twice as many Doeos to catch, but it puts additional green versions of them that give double points.
  • License-Added Game: Doeoriki is a Doeo game promoting KikoRiki (more specifically, it's 4Kids Entertainment run as GoGoRiki), with the show's cast playing the role of Doeos.
  • Mickey Mousing: A lot of action on screen (especially in Doeoriki) is timed to the music.
  • No Fair Cheating: If the game notices you're using the Tab key to cheat, it will restart. The title screen music won't play, seemingly to rub it in.
  • No Plot? No Problem!: No story in the game, just catch Doeos.
  • Off with His Head!: The third stage features two businessmen, one of them getting comically beheaded by Doeos.
  • Pokémon Speak: Doeo themselves only say "Doeo!" when you complete a sequence of them.
  • Shapeshifting: Doeoriki has the cast of KikoRiki transform into "Doeorikis". The final stage plays similarly to King Doeo stage in the original game, but catching the character transforms them back to their original form.
  • Scoring Points: 10 points for every Doeo caught and 500 for every complete sequence.
  • Shielded Core Boss: King Doeo has a circle that spins around him. Touching it makes him warp somewhere else.
  • Timed Mission: As the game says "You have 40 seconds. Gather 100/200 Doeos!" This timer is fixed, as the Doeos appear and disappear on a schedule.
