Alibabaroa

Alibabaroa (Korean: 알리바바로아 Allibabaloa), sometimes shortened to just Babaroa, is an enemy character in Puzzle & Action: Treasure Hunt. An avaricious thief armed with a scimitar, he is the brother of Duke Kupa and a henchman of the bandit group Skull. He attempts to stop the adventurers from reaching the stolen treasure, and serves as the first opponent of the port Aden, the first stage of the game.

Personality & Abilities
Alibabaroa, as his profession would imply, is quite greedy. His primary motivation for fighting the two adventurers is the $500000 reward for their arrest, and engages them with vigor. Despite this confidence, he doesn’t take losing well, as he and his brother Duke run off crying to their superior Hercules after their defeat.

In Arcade Mode, he challenges the player to two minigames before he can be defeated, while in Original Mode he challenges three; on the third, he launches a quick attack that speeds up the selection cursor.

Trivia

 * Alibabaroa's name is a portmanteau of “Ali Baba” (referencing the tale of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves) and “babaroa”, the Japanese pronunciation of the dessert bavarois (more commonly known as Bavarian creme).
