Animaniacs: A Gigantic Adventure joins the MSN Gaming Zone

Microsoft has added Animaniacs: A Gigantic Adventure to the MSN Gaming Zone’s free multiplayer matchmaking. The side-scrolling adventure from SouthPeak Interactive and Warner Bros. casts you as Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, running the Warner Bros. studio back lot across nine 3D levels to stop studio boss Thaddeus J. Plotz from destroying the old Animaniacs films.

The cartoon toolbox is fully stocked: slapstick combat, giant mousetraps, and oversized spring-loaded boxing gloves. A family game with free online matchmaking is still a rare bird, so credit to the Zone for stocking one.
