Play Gobliins 2: The Prince Buffoon Online

Gobliins 2: The Prince Buffoon is a fantasy puzzle game released in 1993 for the MS-DOS platform. Developed by Coktel Vision and published by Sierra On-Line, Inc., it is the second title in its series. The game presents its environments and characters from a side view perspective.

Players control two goblin characters, Fingus and Winkle, who must rescue a kidnapped prince. Fingus is portrayed as intelligent and methodical, often interacting with machinery and puzzles in a careful manner. In contrast, Winkle is impulsive and tends to use force or direct action. The core gameplay involves guiding both characters through a series of screens, using their distinct personalities and abilities to solve environmental puzzles. Players interact with various objects and characters by clicking on them, and each goblin will respond differently to the same hotspot, which is central to progressing through the game's challenges.

Progression is structured as a linear sequence of puzzle-filled rooms and landscapes. The puzzles often require coordinating the actions of both characters, such as having one character operate a device while the other retrieves an item. The game world is populated with obstacles including traps and monsters, though the characters are noted for their resilience. Success depends on experimenting with the two goblins' unique approaches to the interactive elements found in each scene.
