About Mr. Do!'s Castle

Mr. Do!, that king of arcade clowns, is in a bit of a bind - again! This time, a pack of pesky unicorns is trampling the bricked hallways of his castle. Help Mr. Do! rid his dwelling of these crafty, quick-changing (and deadly) creatures with the skillful swing of a hammer. Sometimes a quick clobber to the head will do it. Or maybe a well chosen brick knocked out from above. If you can't stop these critters, then break a hole in the floor to slow 'em down. It's up to you to know when to fight - or when to flee! Tension mounts as you hurry Mr. Do! through the castle's maze, grabbing keys along the way. Only when Mr. Do! has collected all the keys can he unlock the castle door, and open up an extra chance to beat these nasty critters!

Mr. Do!'s Castle on Wikipedia

Mr. Do's Castle, released in Japan as Mr. Do! vs. Unicorns, is a 1983 platform video game developed and published by Universal for arcades. Marketed as a sequel to the original Mr. Do! released one year earlier, the game bears a far closer resemblance to Universal's Space Panic from 1980. It began as a game called Knights vs. Unicorns, but the U.S. division of Universal persuaded the Japanese arm to modify the graphics into a Mr. Do! game following the first game's popularity.

A late Parker Brothers arcade port, where a boxed copy is the real purchase.

Mr. Do's Castle is a 1983 Universal arcade game, marketed as a sequel to Mr. Do! though it plays closer to Universal's Space Panic. It began as a game called Knights vs. Unicorns. Parker Brothers published the 2600 version in December 1984, along with the Commodore and ColecoVision ports. The cartridge arrived late in the 2600's commercial life.

Before you buy

Medium risk. No fakes are documented. The box and manual carry much of a complete copy's value, so check that both are present and original. Compare the Parker Brothers label against AtariAge's scans and ask for a board photo through the dust door.
