Based on the blockbuster animated movie by DreamWorks, Madagascar brings the charm, comedy, and adventure of the film to life in a colorful and engaging 3D action-platformer. Developed by Beenox and published by Activision, the PC version lets players relive the story of four Central Park Zoo animals—Alex the lion, Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe, and Gloria the hippo—as they escape captivity and find themselves stranded in the jungles of Madagascar.
The game blends exploration, platforming, puzzle-solving, and mini-games across a series of story-driven levels. Each character has unique abilities: Alex can roar and claw through enemies, Marty can jump and sneak, Gloria uses her strength to smash through obstacles, and Melman can glide and heal. You'll need to switch between them to solve environmental challenges and overcome enemies.
With its colorful visuals, movie-like humor, and familiar characters, Madagascar is a perfect pick for younger gamers and fans of the film. The PC version supports older Windows operating systems like Windows 98, ME, 2000, and XP, and may require compatibility tweaks for newer systems.
Whether you're dodging animal control in the city or helping penguins hijack a ship, Madagascar captures the playful spirit of the film in an interactive format the whole family can enjoy.
