Press Play announces Max: The Curse of Brotherhood for Xbox LIVE Arcade

Press Play, the developers of Max and the Magic Marker, has announced that their latest title 'Max: The Curse of Brotherhood' will be coming to XBLA this Spring.

Max: The Curse of Brotherhood begins when Max wishes for his annoying little brother, Felix, to be whisked away by unknown evil forces, only to get more than he bargained for. Armed only with a marker and a hope of undoing what he has just done, he sets out on a perilous journey across deserts, eerie lantern-lit bogs, ancient temples and lush green forests to get his younger sibling back. Along the way Max gains the power to manipulate his environment and overcome seemingly impossible obstacles.

The game mixes traditional Scandinavian storytelling with an inventive and colorful 2.5D platformer, combining classic jump and run gameplay with smart and innovative puzzles. By drawing green vines, strong lianas, impressive pillars of earth and powerful streams of water with a magic marker Max can traverse the elaborate cave systems, villages and gloomy castles of Anotherland.
