Yesterday was a big day for episodic game developer Telltale. Not only did it announce a new game series based on Walking Dead and show off the first playable version of Jurassic Park, it also announced four other new titles. Of particular interest to the IGN Editors is a reboot of the classic point-and-click franchise, King's Quest, although, sadly, no details were discussed other than the reboot's existence. Here's everything we know about Telltale's upcoming lineup:

King's Quest: Not a port of the original, this will be an entire reboot of the franchise. Expect more details at E3 in June.

Puzzle Agent 2: Last summer Puzzle Agent, a bizarre take on the Professor Layton formula, was released on PC and iOS platforms (it'll make its way to the PlayStation Network this spring). The sequel, Puzzle Agent 2, is coming this summer to all the same platforms. It again stars Agent Tethers and takes place in the snowy Midwest.

More Hector: Badge of Carnage: The first episode of Hector, a mature, gritty point-and-click adventure, was released independently by developer Straandlooper on the iPhone last summer ( IGN gave it an 8.5). Telltale is partnering with Straandlooper to first bring Episode 1 to iPad, PC, and Mac this spring. Two more Episodes will be released later this year.

I'm most interested to see what comes of King's Quest.  To think that the same dev has now worked on Sam & Max and King's Quest...

King's Quest, hm? I guess I should be excited, but I'm not the biggest fan of Telltale's art style.

On a related note: Games based on the comic-book series Fables were announced as well:
"Today, Telltale Game is announcing an exclusive worldwide publishing agreement with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to develop videogames for the comic-book series Fables." Source

Telltale is on fire, that's for sure.

King's Quest rules.

How many employees do they have?!  They're working on King's Quest, Puzzle Agent, Hector, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park, The Walking Dead, and now this. o_O

hopefully kings quest is a 3ds title.

point and click needs to either be a computer games with mouse point and click or the obvious ds point and click with stylis.

i guess zak and wiki wasn't bad, but still the ds would feel vastly superior in control.  oh and no ngp, iphone or any of that finger touching.  too big of a area your finger touches.  don't like that.

Holy shiiiiiiiiiit! King's Quest!

Plus I bet as soon as they finished some of them they'll announce the development of the next Sam & Max and Tales of Monkey Island episodes (I hope they won't ever get their hands on Grim Fandango or Maniac Mansion/Day of the Tentacle). Telltale is more and more turning into the mishmash company of point&click games and unfortunately the only one which gets US media attention these days.

I prefer Double Fine, where Tim Schafer & Ron Gilbert work together now (even though these guys probably won't do classic point&click anymore) and the small, unsung European point&click developers, such as Daedalic Entertainment or Pendulo Studios who - unlike Telltale - focus on creating beautiful, original hand-drawn p&c games, which are only influenced by LucasArts' and Sierra On-Line's legacy, not based on their classic franchises.

Everything Telltale does is objectively good, but their games on borrowed franchises/IPs  have a routine, yet uninspired feel to them in my opinion and usually leave me mildly entertained but unimpressed. I won't complain, I'm glad that point&click adventures are still being created, but Telltale is an overrated developer in this genre imo.

With the amount of stuff those guys are releasing they start to look like Activision of point and click games :)

King's Quest, huh? Remove the "haha, you're now on an unwinnable state because you didn't pick up that object a hundred screens ago which you need now" that was so common in earlier games of the series and I'm in

Puzzle Agent was good, but it needed the puzzles to get hard towards the end. I mean, c'mon, you've got a hint system for the lightweights. Make us veterans sweat a little, will ya?

Also, please stop porting to systems you obviously don't know how to program for, even though they're freakin' perfect for point-n-click (that would be Wii and iOS). I want to love you, but your shitty QA makes it hard.
