Hoi Hoi (ホイホイ) is one of the earliest non-historical games made by Koei, produced by Kou Shibusawa. The game's namesake is a brand of glue traps used to trap cockroaches in Japan, not the definition found in contemporary slang regarding fascination with a particular object, subject, or person. A remake of the title was made for the Game Boy, which diverges from the presentation of the original game. The player's goal in either version is to protect confectioneries from various cockroaches. The Game Boy version was localized as Stop That Roach! in North America.
