Johnny escapes, breaks out on the DS in August

Thinking of Success they are unwrapping Johnny no Dasshutsu Daisakusen (roughly: Johnny’s Great Escape Tactics) for the public. The game was previously known as Escape Johnny, an apt title since Johnny’s special talent is finding escape routes. Johnny no Dasshutsu Daisakusen is broken into separate scenarios where Johnny is in a casino one and trapped inside a pyramid in another. Players explore each area with the touch screen, find items, and discover a path to freedom.

I can’t say if this is intentional, but Success is officially announcing Johnny no Dasshutsu Daisakusen on the same day Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull comes out in Japan. Johnny also bares some resemblance to Indy if he was mixed with Taito’s Mr. Esc. Hmm…
