WiiWare: Sand Castle Creation Coming For WiiWare

Sandy_Beach__1_.jpg

Konami have announced that Sandy Beach will be coming to WiiWare - A sand castle creation tool.

Sandy Beach. Sandy Beach is a fully 3D sandcastle building game that utilizes the Wii remote to form and detail elaborate sand castles, images of which can then be captured and saved to your photo gallery. Players will be able enjoy co-op play as they design their sandcastle on the tranquil shores of Sandy Beach.

Watch out for the invading crabs in Crab Battle mode as they storm your sandcastle. Players will need to strategically build their sandcastle and defend it with cannons as the crabs seek total destruction of your mighty sand creations.

After successfully defending your castle use your metal detector to search for hidden treasures to adorn your sandcastle or even find additional cannon to aid in warding off the pesky crabs.

Seems interesting - hopefully the creation tools are fairly robust. The crab mode sounds kind of cool - like your own Tower Defense map. It's also being made by Frozen Codebase, who are making the upcoming Zombie Wranglers for XBLA.
