Oink Games has launched a Minions edition of its popular Nine Tiles puzzle game.
The original game sees players race to recreate a grid of symbols, either matching the shapes shown or the colours shown. Nine Tiles Extreme Bello! Minions sees players race to match either the Minions shown, or their greeting.
The Minions edition also features larger cards to make the game more accessible for children.
Nine Tiles Extreme Bello! Minions marks Oink’s second collaboration with NBCUniversal, following the launch of a Minions version of TomaTomato – MiniMinion – last year.
Both Nine Tiles Extreme Bello! Minions and MiniMinion are only available in Japan.
