What’s It About?
Players attempt to match three or more similar stuffed animals. Matching builds up a status bar, which can hit "Fever mode" where points are increased. Players collect and select Tsum Tsums, each of which offers a different power-up, adding a slight bit of strategy.
Is It Any Good?
LINE: DISNEY TSUM TSUM is ultimately a bit deceptive. It uses familiar Disney characters -- in a popular toy form -- and a gameplay style that is kid-friendly. It even has music designed to appeal to young kids. However, the game layers on a social media communication service that kids aren't eligible for, and it loads things down with in-app purchases and restricted play time, despite the rounds lasting only 60 seconds. Rather than having a laid-back style that would be welcoming to young players, it uses music to make those time limitations more intense, which can be stressful.
Is there any objectionable content? Nope. But is it as welcoming to kids as it purports to be? Not a chance.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about the intention of advertising and why you don't really need the things you see, though it might seem that you do in the heat of the moment.
Set expectations around in-app purchases and talk about how being patient has its rewards. If they can't use money to continue the game, what can kids do while they wait?
Discuss the dangers of talking with strangers on the Internet and how to stay safe online.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
