The word Voodoo will be forever changed for you after you play VooDoo Friends. The three friends and voodoo dolls Newton, Bacon and Ghost discover a mysterious book one day. The book is filled with magic spells, but one in particular catches their attention. Yarnzilla - the world's largest voodoo doll - can be conjured using yarn. A lot of yarn! In fact, they don't know how much it takes, but they set out into the world to find yarn anyway.
Your task is to help your voodoo friends find yarn. In each of the game's tracks, there are between 3 and 10 balls of yarn. You must collect them to complete the course for a 3-star score. You can also settle for a lower score by leaving some of the balls of yarn behind.
Controlling the voodoo dolls is easy. You click with the mouse on the puppet you want to move and then click on the place in the track where you want him to go. It doesn't have to be close - he will always choose the shortest path to where you click. That is, if there is at least one way to get there.
The voodoo dolls can only survive a fall on two fields, and no two dolls can stand on the same field. However, each voodoo doll has special abilities:
Throughout the game, you'll gain access to special voodoo needles so you can work some black magic. You can stick them into the dolls to give them special abilities. For example, the umbrella pin allows a doll to float down safely to avoid dying when falling on three or more squares. All the different needles will be introduced as you play.
Most courses can only be completed in one way, so it's important to use the needles in exactly the right places. An important detail is that you can only carry a maximum of four different needles at a time - so you cannot collect a fifth type until you have used up one of the other types.
If you collect all the yarn in a course, you get three stars for the course. If you collect more than two-thirds of the yarn, you get two stars. If you complete the course with less yarn than that, you only get one star.
In the beginning it is not important to get many stars, but the further you get, the more stars you need to unlock new courses.
When you have completed a course you get a score and you can see what the world record for the course is. The score is calculated as follows:
You must collect all the balls of yarn in as few steps as possible to beat the world record.
The stars you get are also used to activate up to three Bonus Spins. If you get one star, you also get one spin, while three stars give you three spins - on the last spin you even have the chance to win the bank. The tokens are added to your account as soon as you win them.
You can only get the three Bonus Spins once for each course!
When you have collected 150 stars, you get access to "My Courses" where you can build your own courses and publish them to your friends. The courses you publish will also be available as beta courses until they have been rated by other players.
To publish a course, you need to play through it yourself and collect all the yarn keys. This is to ensure that you don't create a course that no one can complete. If you want to increase your chances of getting your course rated highly, make sure that there are no needles left over when it is completed. If other players complete your course with excess pins, you will see a small red number on the course - this shows how many pins people have had excess.
When you have collected 200 stars, you get access to the beta courses.
During beta courses you can play randomly selected courses from other players and give them a rating of 1-5. Your rating helps us decide whether or not to release the track.
The token reward for completing a beta track is extra high and you build up so-called beta rank. The more courses you rate, the higher your rank will be.
If you or others have made 12 courses that you think fit together so well that they deserve a whole book of their own, you can also write down their ID numbers and send them in a message to the ChronoDK profile. He will then take them into consideration when selecting the tracks to be published. However, there is no guarantee that they will be released, as the tracks still need to be tested as beta tracks.
I used to play this game in 2012 when I bought my first iPad!
Some years later I couldn't find it anywhere! So happy I found it on this site!
I adore it! It is absolutely cute, funny, and challenging sometimes!
Thank you very much, developers, for such an amazing game! Good luck!
It's a fine game...
Sometime it's not easy to collect all balls to get the necessary stars...
but... the perseverance kills the game...
Have fun...!!
Voodoo Friends is a very challenging and mind boggling game. You definitely have to put your thinking cap on and concentrate on making the correct moves to collect all the balls of yarn to earn all three stars on the more difficult levels. Voodoo Friends is tons of fun but it takes a lot of patience and perseverance to collect all the balls of yarn and earn the three stars on every level. Think positive and you can do it! Tinkerbell44
