Gameplay

The game is a 3D remake of the 2D "handcar" minigame from the 1992 Amiga game Hugo - På Nye Eventyr (released as just Hugo in an export version outside Denmark), which was itself based on the early 1990s scenarios from the TV game show Hugo. In the game, the player controls a member of Hugo's family escaping a pursuit by the evil witch Scylla and her minions. The player is driving a trolley to jump, dodge and tilt to avoid obstacles and collect gold coins. The gold can be then spent on power-ups and trolley upgrades, and to unlock additional content, all of which can be also bought via microtransactions. There is also a wheel of fortune type minigame.

Hugo Troll Race was announced by Hugo Games A/S for the iPhone and iPad in early July 2012. It has been originally released as a commercial product, before switching to the free-to-play model.

In the first Krea Medie Hugo merchandise, Adimex released a line of Hugo Troll Race themed bath products in 2013.
