Rest assured, that was the last time you'll see the Vengaboys quoted in a Pocket Gamer news story. It's just that Gameloft is donning its skimpiest clubbing clothes for an Ibiza-themed collection of mini-games.

There are 44 in all in Ibiza Beach Party, including cocktail mixing, jet-ski racing, and, ahem, a wet T-shirt contest. The mucky pups.

The games take place in six locations – hotel, beach, yacht, bar, nightclub, and campfire – and there are NO instructions. Yes, that's right. You'll have to figure out how to play each mini-game through intuition alone in the five seconds before it starts, which puts us in mind of Wario Ware on the Nintendo DS.

The game will include two modes. Survival will have you playing through the mini-games to beat your high score, while Time-attack mode is more about playing a single mini-game and trying to keep up as its pace increases.

If the mini-games are fun, Ibiza Beach Party could be the ideal antidote to the current cold weather here in Blighty. Strap on your sunglasses in anticipation of a review soon.
