Loved Danger Mouse as a kid. Hope the game is good.
Looks like the same studio that released The Phantom beat-em up game and bug-fixed that into something decent.
Not expecting anything great, but not expecting an incompetent cash-in either. Hopefully a passable fun attempt.
I did buy that Phantom game from Limited Run, but havent gotten it yet. Hope DM will at least be decent and not like that Inspector Gadget game.
Well didn't expect to see a game based on Danger Mouse, but here is to hoping it is a good game!!!!
