Bandai Bets On A Legends Of The Hidden Temple Like J Game Show As A 3DS Hit

On top of making anime video games, Bandai Namco also licenses Japanese game shows. These games have been long tail sellers like Run For Money: Tousouchuu based on the game show Cha$e which sold over half a million copies in Japan alone.

Puzzle Solving Battle Tore! Treasure Hunting Adventure has been announced for Nintendo 3DS. It’s based on a game show that’s kind of like Legends of the Hidden Temple minus the temple guards, but with more devious challenges. Here’s a look at how the escape the room meets quiz game works.

The 3DS game will have these kinds of challenges as mini-games as well as quiz battles. Puzzle Solving Battle Tore! Treasure Hunting Adventure is unlikely to be localized, but it might be an important title for Bandai Namco Games in the long run.
