As the new museum curator, players must reestablish order as quickly as possible by searching for hidden objects that are listed on clue cards. Find all of the items listed in a category to clear the cards and help rebuild and re-organize the museum. It’s up to you to restore the museum before time is up and its reputation is ruined.

Pictureka! Museum Mayhem

Game Features:
• The game features the distinctive art style of the board game with new quirky illustrations and wacky themes that make the game come to life on your computer screen.
• Play on thousands of different game boards. Dynamically generated boards bring an abundance of game play and challenges for hours of fun.

PICTUREKA! MUSEUM MAYHEM is currently available on Pogo.com for download in the US and the UK for unconnected desktop play. Players can also experience PICTUREKA! MUSEUM MAYHEM while connected to the internet via the game at no additional charge. While connected, players will be able to earn tokens and chat with family & friends while they play.

Pictureka! Museum Mayhem

The downloadable version is priced at $19.95 in the US and £11.95 in the UK. The PICTUREKA! MUSEUM MAYHEM PC-CD will be released at retail in early 2009.
“We created PICTUREKA! MUSEUM MAYHEM with everyone in the family in mind,” said Andrew Pedersen, General Manager of Pogo.com. “We wanted to create a game that is perfect for a quick break for mom during the day or for an entertaining and laugh-out-loud night with the kids around the PC trying to be the first to find the objects.”
“PICTUREKA! is a new property in Hasbro’s board game portfolio and has quickly become a runaway hit,” said Mark Blecher, General Manager of Digital Gaming and Media at Hasbro. “EA has taken the core of the game and added incredibly fun and adventurous layers of interactivity such as themed museum halls and unique game play elements that will appeal to all members of the family.

My Make-Up video game asks the question - who needs a makeover?

Oxygen Games release the results of a survey of 7-11 year old girls to find out which celeb is most in need of a makeover. Results have shown that Princess Beatrice comes out on top!

The survey, carried out by Dubit on behalf of Oxygen Games, asked a range of girls aged 7-11yrs which celebrity they thought was in most desperate need of a make-over and it won’t come as a big surprise to hear that Pixie Geldof came a close second behind Beatrice in the poll, with a quarter of respondents (25%) believing she could do with some style advice and a revisit to the make-up palette!
“The survey highlights the fact that young British girls have strong ideas about fashion and make-up. Now they have the chance to unleash their creativity and try out their preferred styles with help from the MyGames range (My Make-Up, My Dress-Up and My Secret Diary). Perhaps Pixie and Princess Beatrice could benefit from some makeover advice from these style-savvy respondents!” said Emma Jenkins, Oxygen Games.
The MyGames range is available on the Nintendo DS and can be played alone or socially, as it’s easy to hold make-over parties or chat securely to friends via MyGames Chat.

My Make-Up is like having a whole makeup box in your Nintendo DS, in every colour you can imagine! You can play with make up, brushes and creams to makeover, pamper and facepaint yourself and your friends. Once you’ve finished the makeover you can save it in your photo album and even send it to friends with My Dress-Up to complete a whole new look – clothes and the perfect make-up!

My Dress-Up lets you play in your very own digital dressing-up box. After checking your messages to see who needs your help to create a new look, dress up your friends for special occasions and parties or even invite them to a dress-up party and rate each other on your styling skills.

My Secret Diary
lets girls take the traditional locked diary onto the Nintendo DS, with password protection to keep little brothers out! You can set reminders for special events like birthdays so you don’t forget to buy a present and record all of your thoughts.


The MyGames series is fully interactive and the exclusive ‘MyGames Chat’ is available on all three games. You can host parties, receive messages or just sit back and chat with all of your My Make-Up, My Dress-Up and My Secret Diary friends over Nintendo DS Wireless Communication.
