Majesco Announces 'Marker Man Adventures' For DS
Like an exile from Flatland, Majesco today announced the impending arrival of Marker Man Adventures for the Nintendo DS - one of several new games that Majesco's announced during the pre-E3 period.
Coming from Glyphic Entertainment, who're also working on another DS game, Warlords, Marker Man tells the tale of a lovely little stick figure - presumably the "Marker Man" in question - who embarks upon a 150-level scrolling quest to find his bestest friend, Doodle Dog.
Naturally, you'll use the stylus to draw on the DS - it is a game about drawings, after all - and you'll need to master lines, triangles, boxes and even the nigh-impossible "circle" in order to save Doodle; logic and geometry will run the show as Marker Man moves through underwater environments, outer space scenarios and glacial ice levels.
Look for this marked marker adventure to mark out shelf space sometime during the 2008 holiday season!
