An Outrageous New Adventure !

[BizioEE]

Described as an action/adventure game with hints of strategy elements, this unnamed game is based in a fantasy world of giant beasts and tiny little creatures, both friendly and fearsome.

Players take on the role of a tribe leader, who leads a band of creatures called the Rubu, on a vital quest to maintain the tribe\'s survival. Hitching a ride on the back of a huge migrating beast your tribe encounters obstacles and puzzles, and enemy beasts that require practiced fighting skills and quick defensive instincts to avoid and eventually dispatch.

The game is based on action, yes, but a deeper level of the title requires that you learn leadership skills. As you travel from huge, gorgeous lands packed with polygons and unique textures, you\'ll learn the tricks needed to survive in each of the atypical eco-systems. Strategies and planning play a large role in your success, too, because each exotic eco-system has a food chain that you don\'t want to become a part of.

While the game is currently unnamed, Outrage is working with Interplay, which is planning to publish the PlayStation 2 title in either late 2001 or early 2002. We look to hear more about this Outrage-developed game in the near future.

Sounds kinda kiddy to me.  You know, sorta like Echo the Dolphin.  Not that I don\'t like kiddy games, but puzzle games tend to get irritating after about the 10th puzzle area, with the same but more complex puzzles.  I guess I\'ll wait and see though, sometimes developers surprise me.

Ign must be re-hashing their stories. This was unveiled last year, along with the concept art.

I\'ve been going to Outrages site constantly waiting for some real screens.

It sounds...interesting.. I wouldn\'t say "kiddy" (not that it matters to me) but almost OddWorld-ish. Remember in the new Munch game the enviornment will also be a factor.

The character sketches are very much non kiddie.

but we have no in game shots or gameplay info
