One of the first games coming to the new OUYA console will be Pingo from 1-Pup Games. Pingo marries poker with puzzle games and adds in dancing penguins for good measure. And if that isn’t a recipe for success, I don’t know what is.
Pingo was actually birthed from the OUYA Create Jam and is a pretty simple to play puzzler, which is key for a good puzzle game. Easy to play and hard to master and all that. With Pingo, players get a play field consisting of a 5×5 ‘card’ grid. The player then places ‘cards’ across the grid to make poker hands horizontally, vertically, or diagonally- like bingo… oh I get it…
Look for Pingo to appear along with the OUYA console very soon.
I’ve played the game about 500 times maybe ,and it is deceptively simple and then complex. The game is challenging and is a great way for gamers of all ilks to hone their “mousing” skills. My best score is just shy of 1.4 Million…no kidding! Addictive Game, obviously…
