sikle revealed that the new mini-games in “The Dark Carnival” will be related to Hoodwink and Pudge

One of the upcoming mini-games will feature Hoodwink.
For the event, his model was updated to include a new animation, `dc_mouse_attack_idle`, which is located in the `dc_minigame` category (where “dc” stands for Dark Carnival). The animation is still empty: all 137 frames are identical—the hero simply stands ready to jump or attack.

Another mini-game is likely related to Pudge and will be named after his set (where the Dandy doll is also hanging)—“Murder of Crows.” Judging by the description, it seems you’ll have to catch crows.

The title “murder of crows,” both for the set and the possible minigame, refers to the medieval tradition of naming groups of animals using poetic or ominous terms. These are all collective nouns, and while they’re used primarily in English, there are a few in Russian as well: a pride of lions or a school of fish, for example. Here, it would simply be a “flock of crows” or “crow flock,” but in English, it literally means “murder of crows.”
