The company behind Tomica die-cast cars and Plarail train sets is about to put indie games on Steam. On November 4, 2026, Takara Tomy launched an indie game publishing brand called ENJOYN GAMES and announced that its first three titles will roll out for PC (Steam) starting in November.
That opening lineup is Werewolf Burger, a hidden-role party game; Little Cheese Works, a co-op stealth action game; and Sloppy Forgeries, a competitive drawing game. The only price confirmed so far is Werewolf Burger at $6 (tax included), launching November 10.
A toy maker getting into games is nothing new. What makes this different is that these are not in-house productions. ENJOYN GAMES is launching as a publishing operation, working with developers in Japan and overseas to handle sales and promotion. The brand is also accepting pitches and publishing inquiries for games still in development.
The interesting part is that all three titles are built to fall apart in the best way once you add more people. That is where the Takara Tomy DNA shows. Let’s go through them one at a time.

What kind of brand is ENJOYN GAMES?
ENJOYN GAMES is an indie game publishing brand Takara Tomy launched on November 4, 2026. It partners with developers in Japan and abroad to support sales and promotion.
All three of the first-wave titles launch for PC (Steam) in sequence starting in November. Here is how the release dates, prices and developers break down.
| Title | Release Date / Price | Developer |
|---|---|---|
| Werewolf Burger | November 10 / $6 (tax included) | uracon |
| Little Cheese Works | Q4 2026 (planned) / price TBA | BUBBLE GUM |
| Sloppy Forgeries | November 14 (planned) / price TBA | ENJOYN GAMES handles publishing in Japan |
Line all three up and the common thread is obvious: every one of them puts noise at the center of the design, whether that means voice chat or everybody crammed onto the same couch. As a lineup picked by a toy company, that is remarkably consistent. The streaming angle is clearly on purpose, too.
What exactly is Werewolf Burger?
Werewolf Burger is a hidden-role party game in which players split into staff and spies and try to build a single hamburger together. It launches November 10 for $6 (tax included), developed by uracon.
Finish the burger without it collapsing and the staff win. If the spies sabotage it, everyone votes on who the spy was. The clever bit is that Werewolf rules get mapped onto a physical, shared task, so it is not only the argument that convicts you. The movement of your own hands becomes evidence.
Alongside a party mode for up to six players, there is a single-player story mode. For a game at this price, having a solo option is quietly a big deal. You can learn the rules without waiting for your friends to show up.
Is Little Cheese Works a game about being a mouse at a sweatshop?
Little Cheese Works is a co-op stealth action game where two to four players take on the role of mice employed at a brutal company and haul an enormous wheel of cheese. It is developed by BUBBLE GUM, planned for Q4 2026, and as of November 2026 no price has been officially announced.
Your coordination tool is voice chat. The problem is that talking and making noise wakes the cats. In other words, you have to speak to work together, and speaking gets you caught. That kind of design guarantees arguments, and the arguments are the point.
Worth noting as well: it supports both online and local co-op. Play it in the same room and the real screaming arrives before the in-game noise does.
Sloppy Forgeries is a competitive race to copy a masterpiece in three minutes
Sloppy Forgeries is a competitive drawing game in which players use a mouse to copy famous paintings within three minutes. It is planned for November 14, with ENJOYN GAMES handling publishing in Japan.
The restrictions are harsh. You get four to six colors and only three brushes. On top of that, undo and fill are both disabled. Every mistake stays on the canvas, and your accuracy is scored in real time.
The package includes online matches for up to eight players, local versus play using two mice, and a single-player mode that takes on 50 masterpieces. There is enough there to justify playing alone, which makes it an easy entry point even if competitive drawing games usually aren’t your thing.
When are the early-look streams?
Two early-look streams are planned. Majime ni Yabacity streams first on November 8 at 20:00, followed by six Nijisanji livers on November 10 at 20:00.
Werewolf Burger launches November 10, so the schedule puts an early look the day before on the 8th and six livers on launch night itself. Six also happens to match Werewolf Burger’s maximum party size exactly, which makes it very clear that these titles were picked with streaming in mind.
Hidden-role games mesh absurdly well with streaming. As a way to launch a publishing label’s first release, this is a solid play.

Summary: the first wave starts with Werewolf Burger on November 10
ENJOYN GAMES is the indie game publishing brand Takara Tomy launched on November 4, 2026. Its first three titles arrive for PC (Steam) in sequence starting in November.
Werewolf Burger lands November 10 at $6 (tax included), developed by uracon. Little Cheese Works is planned for Q4 2026 with no price announced yet, developed by BUBBLE GUM. Sloppy Forgeries is planned for November 14 with price TBA, and ENJOYN GAMES handles its publishing in Japan.
For early-look streams, Majime ni Yabacity goes live November 8 at 20:00 and six Nijisanji livers follow on November 10 at 20:00. The label is also taking pitches and publishing inquiries for games in development, so for indie developers this is one more door that just opened.
All three games are built around the idea that playing with other people is what breaks them, and that says a lot about this brand’s personality. If a toy company is going to become a publisher, it picks games that get a table yelling rather than games you grind through in silence. The logic holds up, and pricing the first one at $6 is the right way to open the door.
Start with Werewolf Burger on November 10. If you can get six people together, that night is the main event.
