Hugo: The Evil Mirror (Danish: Hugo: Det Afskyelige Spejl) is a 2002 video game in the Hugo franchise developed and published by ITE Media for the PC and PlayStation, and in a different version also for the Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance (also known as Hugo Advance), and mobile phones. It is known as Hugo: Der Teuflische Spiegel in Germany, Hugo: Ilkeä peili in Finland, Hugo: Czarodziejskie zwierciadło in Poland, and Кузя: Заколдованное зеркало in Russia.

The PC and PlayStation version is a 3D platform game reminiscent of Crash Bandicoot. Each of three troll kids have different powers and their parts have different styles of gameplay. The girl Ruth can jump extra high, the boy Rat has a snowball gun bazooka, and the infant Rit rides on a wild boar. Once their parts are completed, a new path is opened in the mirror world, where Hugo himself has to escape from Scylla's castle before the final showdown with the witch. Unused content from the game included Hugo's house as the game's central hub and the location of Scylla's regular castle.

The Game Boy and mobile version is a 2D platform game similar to Bubble Bobble with elements of Rod Land and Loder Runner. It consists of three levels, each with 20 stages and ending with a fight against the level boss guarding a piece of the mirror. At the start of each stage, the player is tasked with eliminating all of Scylla's minions in it before the time limit runs out. Hitting any unprotected enemy with the freeze gun's beam for a few seconds will turn them into a block of ice that will shatter if pushed off a ledge or jumped on top of. Frozen enemies can be carried around and stack for gaining access to higher parts of the level or to creating even larger more powerful monsters in which to destroy in order to get the treasure contained within them (bonus points, save keys, and power-up upgrades to health and speed).
