Madagascar Escape 2 Africa is a video game derived from the movie of the same name. Scene group RELOADED have cracked the SecuROM DRM built into the game and a cracked version has leaked to various FTP, Usenet and BitTorrent sites a good 16 days before the game’s official release date. Initially a CloneDVD of the game was released by veteran scene group AVENGED and RELOADED’s release came up shortly after that. I’m not sure which version of SecuROM was included in the game but it does not look like the game had to be activated online like many other releases in 2008. XBOX360 version of the game was also leaked on the 5th of November.

Personally, I’ve never been a fan of games derived from movies. I couldn’t find any reviews for the PC version of the game on Gamerankings but XBOX360, Wii, PS3 and PS2 versions have got some decent scores of 75-80% which is good for a game like this.

Based on the upcoming feature film from DreamWorks Animation, the four famous zoo animals – Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe and Gloria the Hippo – and their entire madcap Madagascar crew take players on a whole new action-packed journey to help save the African savannah. Assuming the roles of all their favorite characters, including those crafty penguins, players must work through 12 distinct levels featuring a variety of wild adventures and fun mini-games. In addition to the diverse single-player gameplay, the Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa Video Game delivers an enhanced multiplayer tournament mode allowing gamers to participate in outlandish competitions alongside or against friends and family.
