Ever since Yahtzee did a review of this game, I've wondered this. I bought it immediately on his suggestion...well, not immediately. More like as soon as it was on sale. Definitely among 1 of my favorite games now. I agree with Yahtzee in that it's kind of like a Tim Burton/Willy Wonka thing. It's wacky and I think would be a big hit if adapted right and marketed properly.
I know that video games work best as interactive media and that adapting them takes part of the point away, but if we're going to get adaptions anyway might as well be the cult game that didn't do as financially well as it should have at the time of its release. What do you Escapers think? Could it work? What other games do you think would work well if adapted into a passive media form?
*Insert obligatory "Where is Psychonauts 2?" demand*
