The fractured fairy tale of American McGee's Grimm starts next spring on GameTap. The 24 episode series will follow the darker narrative of the original Brothers Grimm tales and have players in a "sandbox world which contains missions assigned in episodic fashion." The series will be set up in a way to have cliffhangers and keep players interested in future episodes. Images below in the gallery are what to expect to see from Grimm's characters.
If the thought of waiting until next spring for Grimm makes you feel uncomfortable, there's always the the new season of Sam and Max (starting Nov. 8) to keep you busy.

I'm totally up for it. 'Alice' despite being flawed on many levels, remain one of my favourite games of all time. I love games with a unique design, and this is totally up my alley.

Sounds great.
Once that series is done, I can't wait for the next Alice McGee's Random Fairy Tale x Hot Topic Makeover. So edgy.

sounds like a plan. love the visual style. I really hope mcgee can pull it off, since he hasn't done anything good since alice (which was cooler in concept than execution anyway).

While I am slightly stoked for this, the abysmal failure that is Bad Day L.A. is keeping my hype in check.
Also, I wanted to see Oz first, the concept for that game seemed much more intriguing.

I have to say, putting his name on these things certainly makes his games easier to avoid.

So yeah, the last good McGee game was what...7 years ago?
Besides, if I want to see a spin or twist on fairy tales, I'll just continue reading "Fables" and "Jack of Fables" from Vertigo Comics.
