Asmodee revealed Gloutons, a children’s game from Djeco and Sugar Blast, a “match-3” style strategy game from CMON at New York Toy Fair.

In Gloutons, players must gather strings of the proper colors using tweezers and feed them to their cute but gluttonous monsters.  Each round, a card is revealed showing various every day objects.  The players try to be the first to pick up strings from the pile that match the colors of the objects and get them into their monster’s mouth, scoring points if they are the fastest.

The game features two different decks of cards for different skill levels.  The components and packaging are designed to be extra-durable and kid-proof.  Intended for 2 to 4 players, ages 5 and up.  Playing time is about 15 minutes.  MSRP is $39.95.  Release date has not been announced.

Inspired by “match-3” strategy games, Sugar Blast challenges players to create matching rows of candies by swapping tokens on the board.  The game board itself is designed to tip in four directions, allowing the tokens to slide down to fill empty gaps, possibly triggering a chain of “matches.”  The goal is to collect a combination of candies that match an objective card, with victory going to the first who can do so.

Sugar Blast includes a plastic game board, 72 candy tokens, a cloth bag, and goal cards, with rules in English and Spanish.  MSRP is $29.95.  For 2 to 4 players, ages 8 and up.  Games take about half an hour.  Release date has not been announced.
