FreakZone Games will deliver retro adventure game MANOS: The Hands of Fateto iOS devices on July 26. Based on the awful 1966 cult movie of the same name, the game has players controlling Mike through locales inspired by the film, as well as settings from other movies.
According to FreakZone's site (http://freakzonegames.tumblr.com/), "MANOS honours bad movies and games and borrows a lot of conventions from famous badness of the past, while at the same time bringing them all together to create something good." The game contains references to multiple films and games such as Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, along with Easter eggs dedicated specifically to Mystery Science Theater 3000.
The development team plans to release the NES-inspired game on Android devices, including the Kindle Fire, later this year.
