Players help three resourceful orphans work together to protect themselves and their family fortune from their greedy uncle, in this action-adventure game based on the 2004 film starring Jim Carrey. As in the movie, as well as the amusingly gloomy children's novels that inspired it, this Lemony Snicket game follows the notably unfortunate exploits of Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire.

Players will need to make use of each character's particular skills as they make their way through the game's 20-plus missions. In addition, they'll need to invent new tools to help them through certain situations, such as the bad-guy clearing Bopper, the sludge-traversing Stilts, and the rocket-pack Booster. Mission locations include, Count Olaf's Mansion, Uncle Monty's hedge maze, and Aunt Josephine's lakeside shack.

Features:
- Sixteen adventurous missions based on the movie and book series
- Play as one of the three orphans, each with their own unique skills
- Get out of sticky situations (and unfortunate events) by inventing gadgets such as a "Fruit Flinger" and "Steady Stilts"

  MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION:

In Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events,? fans follow the Baudelaire orphans as their luck goes from awfully bad to incredibly worse. Based on the popular book series and the upcoming movie starring Jim Carrey, this treacherous tale allows players to experience the eccentric adventures of Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire. Gameplay combines the unique talents of all three orphans to keep them one step ahead of their distant uncle, the evil Count Olaf, who’ll stop at nothing to get his greedy hands on their family fortune.

Be The Baudelaires—The player can switch between the three Baudelaire orphans throughout the game, playing as Violet the inventor, Klaus the brave intellect, or as Sunny, the biting baby. Some missions are designed to take advantage of a specific character’s abilities.

Invent To Prevail—The orphans will gather objects throughout the adventure to build ingenious inventions for solving tricky puzzles or for fending off Olaf’s creepy cohorts – a word which here means people who are dreadful enough to consider Count Olaf a friend. Inventions include the Bopper to clear enemies from your path, the Stilts to maneuver through toxic goop and the Booster for jet-powered jumping.

Vanquish The Villains—Defeat Count Olaf and his wicked henchmen who assume many disguises in their never-ending pursuit of the Baudelaire orphans and their family fortune.

Experience The Adventures—Players will engage in over 17 different missions based on the adventures from the movie and the first three books; exploring Count Olaf’s mysterious mansion, navigating Uncle Monty’s intricate hedge maze and racing from Aunt Josephine’s rickety house before it plummets into Lake Lachrymose.
