Andy’s Backyard Games

Andy’s Backyard Games is a section of boardwalk games at Shanghai Disneyland Park in Pudong, Shanghai, China. It is located at Disney•Pixar Toy Story Land. It was originally a Toy Story-themed restaurant named Toy Box Cafe, until two booths were closed at an unknown date to be turned into carnival games.
It uses a game voucher system, and you can purchase up to five vouchers for each game. Each voucher costs RMB 30 (30 Chinese Yuan) or $4.21 USD (4 US Dollars & 21 cents).

There are three games, with two of them replacing former booths at Toy Box Cafe. The new games include:

== Trivia ==
* The Games have different prize tiers: Third, Second, and First Prize (or Rookie Operator, Elite Navigator, and Legendary Pilot for Alien Rocket Launch), that earn you different items worth RMB 39, 69, & 350 respectively (≈ 5, 10, & 50 USD). My guess is that Socks are Third Prize, Pins are Second, and Large Plushies are first.“Won Minigames @ DISNEY!! เอาช 🦖&👽 กลับบ้านไปเลย!!!!” Lemon8, retrieved 15 Dec. 2023, https://www.lemon8-app.com/phployy/7244362854927761922?region=us The requirements to earn different tiers include:
