Majesco takes the DS to the Toy Shop
The artificially-generated virtual Toy Shop, that is, not one of the thousands of toy shops around the world that already carry the DS. Uh, in a game. In other, clearer words, Majesco has announced a new DS game called Toy Shop for an April release, developed by Gameinvest.
The game is a business simulation in which players, as Mel and Mark, inheritors of their grandfather's toy shop, do their best to make sure they don't ruin the family business. The player is in charge of making toys (via minigames), setting prices, monitoring customer satisfaction, and maintaining the appearance and layout of the store. The game will allow the player to choose the level of interaction, from simply making toys all the way up to micromanagement of the store.
We're all about making toys on the DS, but we aren't sure about the whole dealing-with-people aspect. Luckily it sounds like we'll be able to enjoy the toymaking part and ignore the human interactions, just like in real life. We have the first screens of Toy Shop available in our gallery.
