G4's 'Princess Bride Game' Interview

Fans of The Princess Bride can rejoice, because G4 has posted a new interview with developers of the upcoming Princess Bride downloadable game. We were highly curious about this game here at Gaming Today and now have some answers. It would be inconceivable that they screw up a game based on the highly loved film. According to the interview, some of the cast may actually have something to do with the development of this highly anticipated title. Things are looking good so far.

Example questions and answers from the interview are located below along with a link to G4′s exclusive article. I can only pray that they don’t screw this game up at all. I would climb the “Cliffs of Insanity” for a great Princess Bride game and I am sure many other gamers would too.

TheFeed: By far the most popular question from our readers about the Princess Bride game is a simple one: Could you describe the gameplay? Is it a collection of mini-games? A point-and-click adventure?

A casual, narrative adventure game (controlled via mouse and spacebar) with elements and influences such as cartoons, platformers, management systems, quests, puzzles, carnival and rhythm games, unique inventory system and lots of great characters and story.

In making a videogame version of a movie as beloved as The Princess Bride, you’re opening yourself up to a lot of criticism from fans of the film. People have a real emotional attachment to it… Will this game destroy people’s cherished childhood memories like other shlocky videogame versions of classics have in the past? If not, why not?
