TITLE: Dexter: The GameDEVELOPER/PUBLISHER/PLATFORMS: Icarus Studios/Marc Ecko Entertainment/iPhone
FUN FACT: Michael C. Hall, star of the Showtime series, lends his voice to the game while series writer Tim Schlattmann crafted an original storyline. Doesn’t get any more official than that.
WHY COMPLEX IS CO-SIGNING IT: Because as the first phone to provide a worthwhile gaming experience, the iPhone is awesome. We just wish there were more serious games available. We love playing Crash Bandicoot and Trism, but besides Metal Gear Solid and Assassin’s Creed, there aren’t that many mature, serious games available. And Dexter: The Game seems to be pretty serious. Based on the Emmy-award winning Showtime series about a serial killer that kills other killers (we guess two wrongs do make a right), the game puts you in the shoes of the show’s main character Dexter Morgan as he tries to solve murders just like he does in the show. If you haven’t been able to catch the show, you’ll start DVR’ing it once you play the game.

While fans eagerly await the return of Showtime’s Dexter (Season 4 debuts September 27), Complex’s sister company Marc Ecko Entertainment has developed a sick 3D iPhone/iTouch game that will serve as perfect hold-over. Dexter: The Game puts you in the shoes of part time serial killer Dexter Morgan as he analyzes bloody crime scenes for the Miami PD (his day job) and stalks his unsuspecting human prey (his night job). Even if you aren’t familiar with the series, the game features enough innovative graphics and serial killin’ to keep you entertained on your long commute. Watch the trailer below, then hit the iTunes store (HERE!) to cop the game for $5.99…

If you haven’t checked out Showtime’s serial killin’ police drama Dexter, you’re missing one of TV’s most offbeat, suspenseful shows. If you have been following the show, which finished its third season on December 14, then we’ve got a good way for you to kill some time until Season 4 stars: the Dexter Scramble iPhone Game.
This freebie iPhone app was released last year by our bossman’s company Marc Ecko Entertainment. The objective is to unscramble the Dexter poster in as few moves as possible. If you want to try again, simply shake your iPhone to scramble the picture up again. The game is also compatible with the iPod touch, as long as it has the iPhone 2.0 software.

Would you murder someone if you knew they unequivocally deserved an ice pick in their ear? Marc Ecko Entertainment inked a deal with Showtime to give you a chance to find out when they drop the video game adaptation of Dexter. No firm release date has been set but Marc Fernandez, Vice President of Ecko Entertainment confirmed today that the game will follow a third-person action adventure format with the show’s eponymous main character, Dexter Morgan, as the playable character (If you don’t watch the show Dexter is a forensic expert in the Miami police department who preys on the criminals that manage to squeak past the justice system).
