Mini Mario & Friends amiibo Challenge has received a new update on Wii U. To download it, you’ll need 40MB of free space. The update brings Mini Mario & Friends amiibo Challenge to version 1.1.0.

We had previously heard that there were issues with the Skylanders Bowser and Donkey Kong amiibo in the game. There’s a good chance that the patch addresses those problems.

Thanks to Cameron for the tip.

Lightwood Games is continuing its work on the eShop with a new title. Later this year, “Word Logic by POWGI” will be released on both Wii U and 3DS.

Word Logic by POWGI features six pen-and-paper style word puzzles which require some degree of logic or deduction to solve. Both versions will support touchscreen controls while the 3DS edition will specifically offer handwriting recognition. A “left mode” is also included to avoid players blocking the screen with their stylus hand.

Here’s a rundown of the different puzzles:

• Kriss Kross – The classic word-fit puzzle. Place words into the grid using their length as a guide, and using logic to make sure everything overlaps correctly!
• Word Ladder – Make new words by changing one letter at a time. Can you turn one word into another in a limited number of steps?
• Crypto – A cipher puzzle (also known as a cryptogram) which reveals a quote when you crack the code!
• Word Sudoku – Place nine letters according to usual sudoku rules. As an extra clue, one row or column will spell a word.
• Gaps – Several words have one letter missing. Deduce the correct letter to fill in the gaps and spell a new word!
• Wordsweeper – Drawing inspiration from Minesweeper, the clues tell you which letters can be placed in an adjacent square. It’s a crossword-style puzzle solved using logic!

Word Logic by POWGI is tentatively targeted for August.
