Zendoku - first look

Zendoku attacks come in the form of silly, time-consuming minigames intended to stall your opponent and prevent them from filling in more of the puzzle. Some examples we saw were unrolling a roll of toiletpaper, cutting a string to release a ball, or turning a wheel. We haven't seen the DS version as of yet, but we expect that the stylus and microphone will come in to play. In the DS screens there's one example of using the microphone to blow out candles.

You can also play these minigame stall puzzles in the single player Dojo mode, so that you can practice your technique and improve your time, giving you an advantage during multiplayer battles.

Check back with us later, as we'll be sure to update you as soon as we actually get our hands on Zendoku and learn more about the story mode and additional multiplayer features. Until then, hit the Images tab to check out some fresh new screens.
