Making Things Studio, Dynamo and Scrungo team up for toyetic game range

Making Things Studio, Dynamo and Joking Hazard creators Scrungo are teaming up on a new toyetic game range.
The range will kick off with a licensed version under the Fuzzballs IP and combines ‘gamification, storytelling and irresistibly cute characters’.
“From the start, we wanted to combine pop-culture collectability with trickshot play that felt energetic and competitive – dopamine-fueled fun that kids, teens and grown-ups could all enjoy,” said Making Things’ Fi Murray.
Dynamo’s Steve Richards added: “It’s designed to be as fun to play with as it is to collect!”
