Starsand Island was removed from Steam due to copyright issues related to a minigame that copied elements from Tetris.
As has been the case for several years, Google revealed the conference's dates for 2026 after enough folks completed a puzzle on the I/O website. This year's puzzle has multiple "builds" to play through, all of which use Gemini. They start with a mini-golf game in which a virtual caddy that's powered by Gemini offers some of the most anodyne advice imaginable.
The 20 new minigames use either the Joy-Con Mouse controls, the Switch 2 microphone, or the camera. The clear winner of the bunch are the mouse-based minigames, as they fit seamlessly into the kinds of games you'd expect from the series.
