}}'''''Pandemonium!'''''{{efn|Known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''''Magical Hoppers'''''|マジカルホッパーズ}}}} is a 1996 [[platform game|platform]] [[video game]] developed by [[Toys for Bob]] and published by [[Crystal Dynamics]] for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]], [[Sega Saturn]], [[Microsoft Windows]], [[N-Gage (device)|N-Gage]],<ref name="NGS2008EA" /> [[Mobile game|mobile]] and [[iOS]].<ref name="Mobile release" /> ''Pandemonium!'' features Fargus, a [[jester|joker]], and Nikki, a sorceress, who unwittingly casts a spell that destroys the town. The goal of the game is to reach the Wishing Engine, where they can wish the town back to normal. For each level, the player can choose which character to be. Each has a special move – Fargus can deliver a special spinning attack, and Nikki can double jump. The game consists of a great variety of unique gameplay objects, such as watermelons, clouds, spider webs and logs. A sequel, ''[[Pandemonium 2]]'' (''Miracle Jumpers'' in Japan), was released in 1997 for PlayStation and Microsoft Windows.
