DS crossword competition, Sanuk Software steps in

Over at Insert Credit Brandon Sheffield posted a highlight about Barnyard Blast, a DS game where he wrote the story. Sanuk Software who is developing the title is working on a second Nintendo DS game, Crosswords Challenge. No details or release plans have been announced, but DSI Games seems to have a relationship with them. When (if?) Crosswords Challenge comes out it’s going to face fierce competition by the New York Times, USA Today and Nintendo. Sanuk Software could differentiate their game with something like a Nintendo Wi-Fi database of user created puzzles. However, that future has limited appeal considering how difficult it is to make a good crossword puzzle.
