Adugo, also known as Jogo da Onça (, ) is a two-player abstract strategy game from the Bororo tribe in the Pantanal region of Brazil.
It is a hunting game similar to those in Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent. It is especially similar to komikan, rimau, rimau-rimau, main tapal empat, and bagha-chall as they all use an alquerque-based board. Adugo is specifically a tiger hunt game (or tiger game). Komikan may be the same game as adugo. Komikan is the name given by the Mapuches in Chile.
