Talking Tom & Friends
Brand: Andamiro
In this novel whacking arcade game, marketed by Andamiro and made by M-Sky, players strike the pop-out Talking Tom character to score points, move up the leader pole and win tickets before time runs out. When a player hits a special Tom target, they score more; and as the game’s timer counts down, gameplay difficulty increases. Features include LED lighting, a hidden continuous strike function, seven challenging levels, step-down console and mechanically reliable popping targets. Talking Tom’s compact cabinet size is perfect for all locations, and it can operate in ticket or non-ticket modes. It’s outfitted with a single user station for focused play and maximum longevity. Talking Tom is a global video game IP, featuring a talking cat named Tom who humorously repeats what users say, created by Outfit7. The franchise has built a massive audience, chalking up billions of downloads and views across its various platforms, including 110-plus million subscribers at its YouTube channel.
Wacky Racer
Brand: Andamiro
New from Andamiro is Wacky Racer, which cleverly pairs coin-op’s traditional mallet game with a unique racing twist. A two-player redemption game that supports head-to-head competition or single-play against the unit’s computer, Andamiro’s new whacker is the latest addition in the company’s expanding Nickelodeon lineup. SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star take their marks as players hammer away at the popping mechanical targets. Complementing the racing theme are seven poppers on each player side in the form racecar tires. Rising above the whacking platform, two vertical racetracks host SpongeBob and Patrick in their cars. When players hit the popping tire before it retracts, they simultaneously earn points and move their racecars closer to the finish line. As players hammer away, the Nickelodeon characters descend along their respective tracks. Additional points are earned along the racetrack with 100 points going to a player with enough speed and skill to reach the finish line. Adding to the excitement, victorious players are celebrated with a gold victory cup that illuminates and pulsates in their honor.
