Were you a fan of the Disney board game Villainous? Well, it is about time they are getting shoved out of the limelight as the Sidekicks are ready to take on some responsibility. Board Game Sidekicks has been announced by Spin Master Games, as your favourite Disney companions are stepping up to the plate.

Disney Sidekicks // Spin Master Games

A brand new Disney board game is coming on August 1st for 2-4 players, as all of the Disney heroes have been prey to a cheeky entrapment. Who is left to step up? Those good ol' sidekicks ready for some training out on the field. Join characters like Timon & Pumba and Tinkerbell as they take on the fearsome hoard of villains awaiting for their arrival. The goal of the game is simple. Players are to seek out and defeat one Disney villain to be crowned a champion.

Players will need to approach the castle to break out their own heroes, which are sitting waiting patiently behind the walls of imprisonment of the likes of Jafar and Captain Hook. Each Disney sidekick will have a villainous counterpart, which is sure to create some magical gameplay. Of course, the immediate attraction is the Disney themed miniatures scattered around the board - which are asking to be painted up!

Not much has been announced regarding the new title just yet, but be sure to keep your eyes peeled for updates on rules and gameplay. This is for sure going to be a winner for myself and my nieces in a new Disney-themed challenge.
