Inspired by gameshows Task Time looks like a quality chaotic local and online party game

Taking some inspiration from silly TV gameshows, Task Time needs to be on your list if you're after more games to play with friends either locally or online. I've been trying to find more for my own crew lately, and this looks like just the ticket we need.

A recent announcement from publisher Wired Productions and developer ReadGraves who have worked on titles like Gang Beasts, Fall Guys and more. 

From the press release:

“I’ve seen members of the Wired team transform from quiet and measured souls, into mouth frothing and evil laughing demons while playtesting Task Time. That is enough for me to know ReadGraves have delivered a wonderfully chaotic party game” said Leo Zullo, Managing Director at Wired Productions.

“We made Task Time to see what happens when you throw a gameshow, a physics engine and all your friends into a blender.” Said Sam Read-Graves, Creator of Developer ReadGraves. “Task Time is competitive, chaotic and completely unpredictable, where no two rounds are ever the same. It’s an excuse to laugh at each other, celebrate small victories, glorious failures and delight in ruining your friends’ plans. The rules change every minute and the game doesn’t care about fairness; it cares about giving you stories to shout about afterwards and we're really happy Wired Productions have joined us on our journey of chaos. To be honest, we wanted to make WarioWare but Nintendo already did that, so we made some friendslop instead.” 

It looks like a real blast! Check out the reveal trailer:

Game Highlights:

• A Gameshow inspired competitive friendslop, where one player will reign supreme to become the ultimate Taskling across 6 rounds of unpredictable and chaotic fun.  
• Unleash your inner mischief-maker to sabotage your fellow Tasklings. Fortunately, there are no (real-life) consequences, just good vibes and endless hilarious moments. 
• Easy to pick up, impossible to put down, every round presents a new opportunity to come out on top. So, even the clumsiest Taskling can pull off a shocking victory. 
• Over 500 unlockable cosmetics and emotes. The best part? NO MICROTRANSACTIONS! 
• Endlessly replayable with over half a million randomly generated tasks to complete.  
• Host lobbies with up to 8 players, where 4-player split screen and online multiplayer are playable simultaneously. 
• Multiple vibrant maps to discover, filled with interactive objects and items… plus, there’s loads more to come! 
• Dual-language support made with streamers in mind – go on… stream to your friends in China or Brazil! 

Looks like one to add into my rotation next to PEAK, R.E.P.O and Crab Champions when it releases.
