Spot the Differences: Party! is on track for a North American and European release this week. It’ll be available on Thursday for $5 / €5.

The game features 360 high-definition scenes and 3,600 differences to find. Those who are playing alone can experience Spot the Differences: Party! with the GamePad or Wiimote.

The following multiplayer modes are also supported for up to four players:

· In synchronous multiplayer mode, one player plays on the Gamepad while others play with Wii Remotes. They compete on who finds more differences.
· In turn-based multiplayer mode, players play in turn on the gamepad. In the end of each round, they get a synchronous replay on the TV to see who found differences fastest.

You can view Spot the Differences: Party! screenshots above.
