Cartamundi has two new entries in its Shuffle line of app-enhanced card games. Shuffle Subbuteo is an adaptation of the tabletop flicking football (A.K.A. soccer) game in which the trick is timing card-play to beat the opponents goalie. The optional app features a scoreboard timer and stadium sound-effects.

In Shuffle Twister, players choose a card with a colored dot and then must follow the card’s instruction. Even picking a card becomes more difficult, though, as the players are further tied up in knots. The optional Shuffle Twister app adds more silliness to the game by randomly assigning additional actions.

NPO plus Arts of Japan makes disaster preparedness games for the organization’s education and outreach efforts. Shuffle is a card game that teaches children to what actions (such as dialing the emergency telephone number and using the fire extinguisher) to take in what order. Gura Gura Town is a version of Snakes and Ladders focused on proper shopping for disaster preparation.
