Hooroglyphs are ancient letters found in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. These ancient letters appeared in the background of Hoohoo Village, Hoohoo Mountain and Guffawha Ruins. Whether the language is still used or not is unknown, although a Hoohooligan mentioned it was used by the Hoohoo Civilization and chronicled the countless jokes developed by it. Hooroglyphs mostly look like a mixture of lines and dots that come together to form the picture of a laughing person. Hoohooros, guardian of Hoohoo Mountain, hides behind pillars engraved with Hooroglyphs during battle.
Trivia
- The name of the Hooroglyphs is derived from the ancient Egyptian language of hieroglyphics, and it also includes the "Hoohoo" laugh title used by areas such as Hoohoo Mountain.
