Tomba!, known as Tombi! in Europe and Ore! Tomba in Japan, is a cult-favorite 2½D platform-adventure series composed of two games starring a pink-haired jungle boy. Tomba must fight the Evil Swine, who have turned the world into a much darker place through the power of their own evil magic, using platforming skills across a fairly large game world.The game is notable for its quest structure, in which you receive points for every objective completed, instead of just simply going from one point to the next as is the case with many platformers. Also, the plethora of hidden objectives made this a kind of Platformer-RPG fusion.In 2023, a Video Game Remake was announced by Limited Run Games, with help of the original director of the game, Tokuro Fujiwara, for the Playstation 5, Playstation 4, PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch.Two games were released for the PlayStation: Tomba! — 1997 Tomba! 2: The Evil Swine Return — 1999 (known as Tombi! 2 in the UK and Europe and Tomba! The Wild Adventures in Japan) | |

Violation of Common Sense | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_1b2b1d2c | comment |
Violation of Common Sense: The best way to get oil off of yourself is to swing the Flame Hammer as soon as you're covered. Normally, exposing yourself to flames while covered in oil deals damage to you and removes the oil, but using the Flame Hammer during your Mercy Invincibility from being hit by the oil will instantly get it off without the damage. And since the only enemy that can cause the Oil status effect is found in an area full of icy blocks that need the Flame Hammer to break, getting oiled is basically just a minor inconvenience. There's a sidequest where you have to fall into a very specific spot in the huge pit in Pipe Area in order to find a clump of mud with a Miner's Ring in it. Falling in the incorrect area is an immediate Game Over. At least Death Is a Slap on the Wrist. | |

| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The "Iron Boomerang"; It has good range and can flat-out kill most if not all normal enemies in game. It can even kill a Needlegator while it's still in its shell. Problem is, you can't even get it until just about the end of the game, and the earlier-acquired GrappleJack, while less powerful offensively, is infinitely more useful overall. | |

Vocal Dissonance | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_3a88a563 | comment |
Vocal Dissonance: Apparently, the voice actor for the Water Pig didn't realize that she was female, even if she refers to herself with feminine pronouns and has a clearly female-shaped body and lipstick. (They may have just thought she was a crossdresser or a transvestite or something, especially since the English voice sounds like a man trying - with limited success - to do a feminine voice.) Averted in the Japanese version, where she has a clearly female voice. Mizuno has a mild case of this too - she's supposed to be young and cute, but the voice actress made her sound like an old woman. The three little girls who speak with adult womens' voices in the Kujara Ranch. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect: "I Want a Silver Medal" requires you to not beat 24.96 seconds, the best time on the kart race, but rather to beat the second-best time, 26.55 seconds. "I Want a Bronze Medal" requires you to play worse than that, only beating 28.16 seconds, the third-best time, without either going over that and getting nothing, or going below 26.55 and getting a Silver Medal. | |

Inconsistent Dub: Some of the items in this game which were also featured in the previous game have different translations here. For instance, Megumi no Hane (literally "Wings of Blessing") are translated as Magic Wings in this game, while the previous game called them Charity Wings. The Doka Pin also keeps its Japanese name here, while the first game called it the Grapplejack. (The Japanese name is a combination of the Japanese names for the Blackjack and Grapple, which are Gurudoka and Gurupin respectively.) | |

| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Baron has been Taken for Granite and left as a statue in Donglin Forest. You're supposed to use Holy Water to un-petrify him, but the thing is that this is a sidequest, and thus you don't really have to free him. Even if you don't, though, he still shows up in the ending.note Since the Last Evil Pig was the one who turned him to stone, it's assumed he returned to normal when the Last Evil Pig was sealed. | |

Permanently Missable Content | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_6602cad | comment |
Permanently Missable Content: In the first game: Break the rolling Spiked Barrel on the Mushroom Forest bridge and that's it! The event involving that Barrel will never be fulfilled! You can trigger the Take Out event, but if you accidentally eat the special lunch box before you find who it belongs to or finish Yan's hide and seek quest before obtaining the lunch box, there's no way to ever complete it. In the second game: Make sure that you have every side quest you want to do completed, because once you enter the door with the final Evil Pig Gate, time will stop and you can only finish the main story. One of the Pots of Life in Kujara Ranch is well-hidden and can only be obtained before the curse is lifted. | |

And Your Reward Is Clothes | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_6ac6a56a | comment |
And Your Reward Is Clothes: In the first game, some quests gave you new pants which had different abilities, like moving faster or jumping farther. The second game gives you new pants and suits (like the flying squirrel outfit) from quests and treasure chests. The 100% ending for the second game takes this to its literal extreme; for getting 100% Completion, you get a tuxedo and Tomba trying it on. That's it. | |

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_6e6b8ca7 | comment |
Apparently, the voice actor for the Water Pig didn't realize that she was female, even if she refers to herself with feminine pronouns and has a clearly female-shaped body and lipstick. (They may have just thought she was a crossdresser or a transvestite or something, especially since the English voice sounds like a man trying - with limited success - to do a feminine voice.) Averted in the Japanese version, where she has a clearly female voice. | |

There's a sidequest where you have to fall into a very specific spot in the huge pit in Pipe Area in order to find a clump of mud with a Miner's Ring in it. Falling in the incorrect area is an immediate Game Over. At least Death Is a Slap on the Wrist. | |

Point of No Return: At the end of the game, just before the final boss, the world state changes and you can no longer do anything but progress towards the final boss. Unfortunately, you can save during this point, and in the era of small memory card space, you may unknowingly overwrite your save here not realizing you're permanently stuck here, and need to restart the entire game. | |

Mercy Invincibility | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_825f60fa | comment |
The best way to get oil off of yourself is to swing the Flame Hammer as soon as you're covered. Normally, exposing yourself to flames while covered in oil deals damage to you and removes the oil, but using the Flame Hammer during your Mercy Invincibility from being hit by the oil will instantly get it off without the damage. And since the only enemy that can cause the Oil status effect is found in an area full of icy blocks that need the Flame Hammer to break, getting oiled is basically just a minor inconvenience. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: Both games suffer from it at points. The Swedish translation for the first game mixed up "frog" and "fog", which result in one hint asking the player to "Bring the fog home". One event failed to translate the English word "find" to Swedish "finn", which is really bad considering it is the very first event of the game. Several menu options and most locations have their English names, despite having very literal meanings, such as "Phoenix Mountain", being a mountain with a phoenix. The translation for the second game starts to suffer around when you get to the Water Temple, with grammar errors and pronoun trouble here and there. An early example is Mizuno saying that the Hot Powder and Cold Powder "boosts damage due to heat or cold", which may cause players not to use them — why would you use an item that makes you take more damage from hot and cold? Actually, it turns out it was just translated badly — they actually make you impervious to damage from heat or cold. | |

Grimy Water | |
| Tomba! (Video Game) / int_b16543d2 | comment |
Grimy Water: The water in the cursed Donglin Forest is rainbow-colored, and Tomba drowns in it even when he's wearing the Swimming Pig Suit. After defeating the Evil Ghost Pig and removing the curse on the forest, the water becomes a pleasantly clear cyan and is no longer hazardous to the touch, allowing Tomba to swim in it. | |

Ass Kicks You: When wearing the Pig Suit, pressing X while in the air causes Tomba to take on a position similar to a cannonball. This is strong enough to kill any enemy that is immediately vulnerable by landing on them. | |

Shout-Out: Possibly coincidental, but an early task in the first game requires the rescuing of seven dwarves. When the 100-Year-Old Man tells Tomba about the coming of the Evil Pigs, there is a scene in the FMV of the seven Pigs scattering all over the lands that is similar to the seven Dragon Balls scattering after a wish has been granted. | |

Priceless Ming Vase: One of the miners in the Coal-Mining Town has a pot made for him by another resident of the town. Interacting with it twice causes it to fall on the floor and gives you the Clay Spatula, which you can give to the guy who made the pot. Giving him the spatula along with clay lets you defy this trope by making another pot, which you aren't allowed to break, and giving it back to the first miner finishes a quest. | |
