I got an email this morning with more information about the upcoming iPhone game based off the hit show Dexter. This is one of the best shows on TV right now and Mark Ecko’s new game publisher with be releasing the title this summer on the app store. I have posted the screens below. There is no talk about the price of the game, but I can’t imagine it will be more than ten bucks, at least I hope not. I think we will be seeing a ton more of these type of games coming for the iPhone, which is not a bad thing, as long as the games aren’t utter crap. The graphics of this game look great and I hope we can review it when it comes out!
The Dexter iPhone game will hit the App Store in iTunes in Summer 2009. Published by Marc Ecko Entertainment, and developed by Icarus Studios, the game is based on the Showtime original hit series DEXTER, and will involve puzzle solving, stealth tactics, mini-games, and “slashing” with the iPhone itself (using the accelerometer tech). You have two choices for how to control Dexter: you can tilt the iPhone left and right, then use the forward and backward buttons on-screen, or use a virtual joystick in the lower corner of the screen. Dexter’s interactions with other people require thought and strategy, as to not raise suspicions for Dexter’s “Dark Passenger”. This means maintaining your “Mask” – if this meter goes all the way down, it is game over. Scripted by one of the show’s writers, Timothy Schlattmann, and voiced by Michael C. Hall himself (star of the Dexter show), the game is a dark and addictive “premium” game that is unlike anything else released for this platform.

As a fan of the show since the beginning, i will be checking out this game. I hope it can capture the eerie nature of Dexter and the satisfaction he feels in doing away with the scum he encounters.
