I asked for the Lucasarts history book for Christmas. My family and loved ones betrayed me, and bought me underpants and video games instead. Oh well. Now I can read some for free!
Don’t call it a comeback, but Lucasfilm has filed new trademarks for Maniac Mansion, its classic 1987 adventure game. The trademark filing was extremely (extremely) expansive, ranging from goods like “read-along children’s books” to services like “providing news programming in the field of entertainment relating to science fiction over an electronic network.” Relevant to our interests, the new mark also references “computer game software and video game software.”
