Oink Games is launching two new Disney games next month.
Toy Story: Toy Overload – designed by Jun Sasaki – is a new version of Oink’s popular co-operative memory game, Order Overload.
In the Toy Story version, all the cards are read out loud and in order, and then divided up between the players. One by one, each player takes a turn saying the name of a card that the other players are holding. As the level rises, the number of cards that players need to remember goes up.
Elsewhere, Oink’s Maskmen game is also getting a Disney makeover as Disney Villains: Unknown Order, designed by Jun Sasaki and Taiki Shinzawa.
Both games will be available in Japan from November 22nd.
