Description

Bone: Out From Boneville is the first graphic adventure title released by Telltale Games, a company founded by former LucasArts employees. Out From Boneville is based on the identically named comic book created by Jeff Smith, and it's the first installment in the episodic Bone game series.

The game follows exactly the plot of the book, namely it begins with the introduction of cousins Fone, Phone, and Smiley Bone, who are lost in the desert after they fled their hometown Boneville. Their goal is to get back to Boneville, but due to several twists of fate their journey takes them to other places.

Using a traditional 3D point-and-click interface, the player must guide the three cousins through all quests, where they meet the red dragon, the rat creatures, Ted the bug, the possum kids, Thorn and Gran'ma Ben.
