Ninjabee is Bringing World of Keflings to Wii U
Ninjabee has a knack for making simple yet addicting games, and the Keflings franchise is no different. In A World of Keflings, you play as a giant who controls a village of little people, tasking them to collect specific resources - wool, wood, stone, precious gems - and use these resources to build houses, workshops, towers, etc. The game has an easy progression system built into it: you chop lumber which you bring to a sawmill; when the sawmill produces a board, you use the board in the workshop to build a piece of a building you need, and so on. It may sound confusing, but within twenty minutes of playing, you'll get it.

This week, Nintendo announced their 2014 launch schedule and Watch Dogs is not on the list. For many, this may be as close to a confirmation that Watch Dogs will in fact not appear on Wii U. However, Nintendo and Ubisoft have yet to make an official announcement on the ongoing rumors.
