'''''Arthur to Astaroth no Nazomakaimura: Incredible Toons'''''{{efn|{{nihongo|'''''Arthur to Astaroth no Nazomakaimura: Incredible Toons'''''|アーサーとアスタロトの謎魔界村 インクレディブルトゥーンズ}} (lit. ''Arthur and Astaroth's Mysterious Demon World Village'')}} is a 1996 [[puzzle video game]] for the [[Sega Saturn]] and [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] which was only released in [[Japan]]. Capcom licensed [[Dynamix]]'s ''[[Sid & Al's Incredible Toons]]'' engine with a ''[[Ghosts 'n Goblins (video game)|Ghosts 'n Goblins]]'' motif.<ref name="HCG101">{{cite web |author=ZZZ |author2=David DeRienzo |author3=Munchy |author4=Kurt Kalata | title=Ghosts 'n Goblins | url=http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/gng/gng6.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091231040708/http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/gng/gng6.htm |archive-date=2009-12-31 |website=Hardcore Gaming 101 |page=6 | access-date=2009-07-30}}</ref> 

==Gameplay==
{{main|The Incredible Machine#Gameplay}}
The game plays the same as the game ''[[The Incredible Machine]]''.<ref name="HCG101"/> The player must solve puzzles in the form of constructing a [[Rube Goldberg]]-like machine to accomplish a given task.<ref name="HCG101"/>

==Development==
The game was initially completed without the ''Ghosts 'n Goblins'' characters, which [[Capcom]] decided to add in at the last minute.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Harrod|first=Gus and Gary |title=Capcom Speak |magazine=Mean Machines Sega |issue=40 |date=February 1996 |pages=[https://archive.org/details/mean-machines-sega-magazine-40/page/n19 20]-21 |url=https://archive.org/details/mean-machines-sega-magazine-40}}</ref>

==Reception==
Kurt Kalata of ''Hardcore Gaming 101'' was critical of the game, referring to some of the puzzles as "a bit odd" or "cruel", concluding that "as a game, its pretty difficult and really only for the most diehard puzzle fanatics, but its an interesting curiosity for a ''[[Ghouls 'n Ghosts]]'' fan".<ref name="HCG101"/>
