    First Glimpse at Strong Bad's WiiWare Insanity

    Strong Bads Cool Game For Attractive People


    All the way this morning ago Telltale games announced that they'd be publishing an episodic WiiWare title starring Strong Bad of Homestar Runner fame. This video gives you a first glimpse into what I'm sure will be a blast to play on the Wii.

    Hit the jump to check out excerpts from a very cool FAQ about the game featuring Mr. Lucha Libre Head.


    What is Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People?
    SBCG4AP is a new episodic game series starring Strong Bad and the rest of the crew from the Homestarrunner.com cartoons. The games are being developed by Telltale Games, the same company who has been tirelessly turning out Sam & Max episodes since 2006.

    Who is Strong Bad? What is Homestarrunner.com?
    Homestarrunner.com is a cartoon created by Mike and Matt Chapman in 1999, and Strong Bad is the series' most popular character. He's an awesome guy who enjoys answering emails from random fans, beating up his younger brother, and messing with people. It's kind of hard to explain. Just visit homestarrunner.com and see for yourself.

    (Oh, also Strong Bad was voted Sexiest Man Alive by Salon.com. Which is a little weird, since he's a cartoon character who goes around wearing a lucha libre mask and no shirt, but we try not to be judgmental.)

    Who is this game for?
    Attractive people.

    No, really. What will the gameplay be like?
    These are story games, with weird plots and tons of dialogue conceived through a mind-meld between the guys who make the Homestarrunner.com cartoons and the team who brought you Sam & Max Seasons One and Two. In each SBCG4AP episode, you take control of Strong Bad and interact with other characters in beloved locations such as Strong Bad's basement, Bub's Concession Stand, and The Stick. Besides talking to other characters and messing with their minds, you'll also get to dress up in funny costumes, check email on Strong Bad's trusty Lappy 486, and play arcade-style mini games such as the timeless Snake Boxer 5.

    Are you doing anything special for WiiWare?
    SBCG4AP was designed specifically for WiiWare, and we're cooking up some fun ways to use the controller. We'll also be taking advantage of Wii Connect24 with some special features that will tie the episodes together and let you communicate with friends.

    Okay, I want to check it out. Where/when can I play it?
    The five-episode season of SBCG4AP will kick off on WiiWare this June. SBCG4AP will also be released for PC from our online store, both as individual episodes and in a full season bundle. (More details on the PC release coming soon!)

    How long will I have to wait between Strong Bad episodes?
    Episodes will be released one month apart, giving you just enough time to play through the game, dissolve into fits of mad laughter (and potentially freak out any cats or small children in the vicinity), poke around and find all the hidden stuff we crammed into the game for your amusement, and tell all your friends how great it was before it's time to start on the next one.
