Mobile device owners can now text using their favorite Disney's characters in cartoon emoji form. In order to get emojis on a mobile device, the user will have to download the 'Disney Emoji Blitz' app. A user has to play matching games of three and complete missions on the app in order to access the hundreds of [cartoon emojis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rinko) from Disney and [Pixar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-dreamlight-valley). In Design Taxi's opinion, the games on the app seem to be similar to '[Dots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/periodot-game)' and 'Candy Crush.'

Although the app for the new game is free, there is a catch -- it comes with advertising. Players will be given targeted ads from third parties as well as ads from The Walt Disney Family of Companies. Players can also purchase in-app products while playing the game.

The Disney Emoji Blitz will be available for both Android and iOS.
