Bone Game Announced by Ex-Lucasarts Team

Posted by Zonk on from the better-than-a-game-based-on-a-movie dept.

CanarDuck writes "Telltale games is a company founded last year by a trio of former Lucasarts employees. They have announced that they will develop a game based on Jeff Smith's popular comic series Bone. There is an interview at Adventuregamers discussing the title, and the fact that it will be a point and click adventure game."

    Bone has always been awesome and if Jeff Smith is working as closely with the team as TFA suggests, this game should be awesome. How can you lose with the guy who invented Phoney and the people who made Day of The Tentacle?

    Erm, hoping for an eventual Sam & Max 2 and playing a different, (hopefully) well-made graphic adventure aren't exactly mutually exclusive, y'know?

    BONE is a critically-acclaimed property in its own right, but you can never tell how well a licensed property is going to translate. Hearing that this is from former LucasArts employees, however, boosts my interest and confidence in the project immensely.
