Hoodoo is a community-created Payload map. It was included with the Sniper vs. Spy Update as an official community-developed map due to its outstanding quality. In a similar design and layout to Gold Rush, Hoodoo focuses on fast-paced, intense action due to the map's sometimes tight and confined areas. The setup timer is 1 minute and 10 seconds.

Update history
May 21, 2009 Patch (Sniper vs. Spy Update)
- Added Hoodoo to the game.
- Changes from community mapmaker Tim Johnson:
- "Added a balcony at 2-1 that I've rotated and cleaned up so it's a much better point, it attracts less sentry spam but is still holdable. 2-2 has a bit more breathing room and the one-way route between BLU/RED spawn in stage 3 has gone and in its place some stairs up to the second level accessible from BLU's side."
- Removed door frame collision to resolve bots getting stuck in the cave during stage 2.
Bugs
- Rarely, the cart may begin to move on its own during set-up[1] and can only be stopped if a player from the BLU team goes near enough to push the cart himself, only possible if a team member uses
noclip
. - Bots will get stuck on the door leading to the second area on Stage 2; they can only get unstuck if the first checkpoint is captured, allowing the door to open.
- On Stage 3, RED Spies can get into BLU's spawn with the help of a BLU Engineer's teleporter, and even walk through the previous door to Stage 2. RED Spies can also use BLU's (previously RED's) resupply cabinets.
- In the area outside BLU's second spawn, RED players can get in a corner with the wooden planks that have been placed close to the cart, causing it to be defended through the walls.
Trivia
- Hoodoo's cart is accompanied by unique sound files: The cart 'ticks' while in play. It also emits a high-pitched ringing just before the cart detonates after BLU's victory on the Third Sector. Both of these sounds reflect the cart's improvised alarm clock "timed fuse."
- In the first stage, the ambulance found in the BLU respawn acts as a fully functional resupply cabinet.
- A Hoodoo is a tall, thin rock spire found in arid drainage basins and badlands.
