Young Minds Await

Ask any of the rogues employed at Dark Brothers Games, Inc. what the key is to a good alibi and they will respond Corroboration. The art of corroboration is finding the right mixture of words to both support the testimony of a partner, as well leave broad enough strokes to be supported, or “corroborated”, by more people if necessary. When done correctly, law enforcement is given the extra burden of disproving the testimony of both you, and your partners. In olden times children learned about corroboration on the streets or in their Sunday school classes, in an unfocused and inefficient manner. Now, Darker Brothers has brought the lessons home for kids to learn and enjoy with “Two-Face's Corroboration: The Game of Fact Coordination”.

3 Ninjas Flip Off

StDVDFeb7

This Valentine’s Day, dive into awkward adolescent action and adventure with the previously unreleased 3 Ninjas series midquel, 3 Ninjas Flip Off: Colt vs. The Bears! The chronicle begins after the events in 3 Ninjas Kick Back, when the three battling brothers, Rocky, Colt, and TumTum, prepare to fly back to California from Japan. While waiting in the airport, the hot-headed, middle-man Colt leaves his brothers to follow two large, suspicious men, both with bear tattoos on their right hands, bypass airport security. However, Colt’s curiosity lands him on a wrong one-way flight to Chicago! While his brothers and grandfather (Victor Wong) frantically search for him, Colt discovers the two men are part of an underground Chicago martial arts militia known as The Bears, lead by the maniacal millionaire, Grubby Smith (Mike Ditka). Things start to get really crazy after Colt is captured and forced to battle Grubby’s elite Bear forces on The Gridiron, a 100 yard-long metallic field full of trap doors, hot spots, and much more. Will Colt’s meddling be his end? Can Grandpa, Rocky, and TumTum make it to Chicago in time? Find out when the 3 Ninjas Flip Off.
