Circle Entertainment is releasing the Kutar series in North America this week, a range of mini-games which showcase the mysterious Kutar, who - we're reliably informed by the PR below - is absolutely not a dog, cat or bear.
There are 10 titles in total, each costing 99 cents. They are Kutar Apple, Kutar Burger Factory, Kutar Concert Staff, Kutar Jump Rope, Kutar Magic Ball, Kutar Powder Factory, Kutar Quiz, Kutar Ski Lift, Kutar Tude Rider and Kutar End Credits.
What is Kutar?
Kutar is the character who has an incredible expressionless emotion that can't be distinguished by laughing or crying.
Kutar is not a dog, cat or bear.
Kutar is always Kutar no matter where he is going or doing.
Though being so expressionless, when Kutar wants to laugh, cry, love or be angry, all feelings are still very ordinary.
No matter what happenes, [sic] the emotions will not changed. Even a desperate situation arrives, Kutar will just inflate his body and overcome. What a wonderful Yuru-chara.
The lovely and funny Kutar game series is everywhere! Just finish the quest's challenges with simple controls.
Will you be investing in any of these games based off that stunning footage, or are you just going to have a lie down somewhere instead?

So this is what the children of Action 52's Cheetahmen look like.
Wow. No.

You KNOW you have a good trailer when the viewer knows less about your products after watching it.
Joking aside this truly is a terrible trailer, watching it provides astonishingly little information about the products they are trying to sell, no release date, no system info, it even fails to tell you that the games are sold separately! As a compilation and at a low price, say $4-$5, maybe, this might be alright, but at $1 each? $10(!) for the full set? No thank you, good sir!
Circle games are (in my opinion)... Okay at best, fun at first, but get boring quickly and are eventually forgotten about, their RPGs tend to last a little longer, but arcade style games like these just end up getting lost to the mists of time...
Anyway, to sum it up, this trailer is terrible, these games will probably be terrible, and Circle is (mainly) terrible.
...
Nobody's reading this wall of text, are they?
Wow. Only on Nintendo. Now we're playing with power
"The lovely and funny kutar game series is everywhere!" I didn't know that earth was in that bad shape.....

I don't know what the games would be like, but I literally lol'd at the trailer.
Oh man, this is utter rubbish. I prefer Warioware a million times over this!!
Looks funny enough, but $10 seems kinda steep for this as a package. Unless there's a discount 10 pack, I'll be waiting for it to be in one of the Circle eShop sales.
THE game(s) 3DS folders are made for.
@FinnTheWhovian I've read it, nice post.
Pay an entire euro to jump a rope? How could i resist?
Kutar will just inflate his body and overcome.
Oh some removed comments on this article, that's weird.
I feel like the article title seriously overhyped this trailer.
"Gloriously unhinged"? Neither of those words really apply here.
@Stu13 Except it's not being sold as a package. I could be wrong, but people aren't going to play these and think "oh man, I'd better get the whole set of these weird non-cat who inflates games!" but one at $0.99 will be good for some laughs for some people. Even if it's terrible, that's less than a coffee.
Now if most of these games turn out to be absolute must-have gold (and who knows), I'm going to agree with you that it's too steep to price like this (not sure where you live, but here ten $1 games with taxes included would be significantly more than $10). But I'm pretty sure they're betting on people picking up one or two, not ten.
Love the sound and animation when Kutar loses every time
..they say Kutar's not a cat...but it looks like a copy cat to me...

..the mini games look fun, and I always wondered what the Battle Cats did when they're not battling..
The game itself looks really charming, but the minigames don't look like they're worth €1 a piece to me.
