The Pink Panther: Hokus Pokus Pink is a musical adventure computer game for the PC released on October 18, 1997 by Wanderlust Interactive. It is based on the 1993-95 television series The Pink Panther, in which the traditionally non-speaking title character speaks audibly (voiced by Michael Sinterniklaas), and is a sequel to The Pink Panther: Passport to Peril. Like its predecessor, it teaches players about six countries as the Pink Panther explores them, this time to undo the accidental magic of an aspiring boy sorcerer. The places Pink visits are: Siberia in Russia, the Dead Sea in Israel, Indonesia, Borneo, Kenya, and Ancient Greece.[2] In contrast to Passport to Peril, this game does not feature any other regular or recurring characters from the TV series, except for brief cameos from the evil Dogfather's henchmen Pugg and Louie during a musical number about Pegasus.

As in the first game, the player uses point-and-click controls to guide the Pink Panther around areas to interact with characters and objects, solve puzzles, and advance the story. Pink stores useful items he finds in a pouch in his fur, and the inventory can be accessed by clicking on him. The player can also access the Book of Knowledge at any point to read information on the indigenous people, languages, clothing, entertainment, art, history, nature, and foods of each country. Helping Pink travel between locations is Spot, a sentient, speaking black hole that he steals from the warlock Strangeblood's magical forest laboratory. The game features five original songs related to animals found in the places Pink visits.
