Over the last couple of weeks I have been showcasing titles that would have strong possibilities of being Madman Entertainment’s April 2012 releases for Australia. Do you know what…. I hit the nail on the head with every last one of them! So if you have been reading my previous articles, than this is an updated compilation one featuring the prices of each release. There is a good haul so I am sure there is one or two things that might catch your eye.

While chasing a talking deer that steals his bag, he runs into a strange girl trying to elude even stranger pursuers, and then things get wild. It’s a mad dash through a city of the past as two young people discover a chance at a new future in COICENT. Then, four people awake to find themselves in the ultimate prison: an ex-soldier, a beautiful woman, an average Joe and a young computer hacker. Why are they there? What connection links them together? And how can they escape? The answer seems to lie with the fifth prisoner, an old man who knows far more than he is telling. And then there’s the cat. It’s the ultimate locked room mystery and all their lives hinge on solving it in FIVE NUMBERS.
