The three Bone cousins, Fone, Phoney and Smiley, are lost in the desert after being run out of their hometown of Boneville. Eventually they find a hand-drawn map and are attacked by a swarm of locusts. Fone Bone escapes, but falls off a cliff; climbs the other side; and finds a trail of Smiley's cigars that lead into a nearby mountain range. When he sleeps that night, two rat creatures attempt to eat him, and he is rescued by the Great Red Dragon. Soon after, he crosses over the mountains and into a valley and meets Ted (a treehopper-like insect), who suggests that Fone seek counsel from Thorn, before winter arrives; but Fone is soon isolated by the snow.

Fone Bone is staying at Thorn's house, and helping with chores prior to the arrival of Thorn's grandmother, Gran'ma Ben, who is coming from the annual Great Cow Race, while Thorn makes a pie. Fone Bone shows Thorn the map found in the desert, which Thorn finds familiar. Meanwhile, Phoney Bone meets Gran'ma Ben, and instantly offends her; but he and Fone Bone are reunited at the house.
Bone: Out From Boneville, a video game adaptation of this book developed by Telltale Games, is available for the P.C./MacIntosh, and is the first in a series of Bone games from the same developers.[1]
Out from Boneville follows the series through the first of nine chapters, creating just a tease at the overall story and leaving some of the best elements of Bone for the future. Things begin when cousins Fone Bone, Phoney Bone and Smiley Bone find themselves lost in the desert, far from home. They've been chased from Boneville, following one of Phoney's money-grubbing schemes. Lost and without a clue as to how to get home, the three stumble upon a strange valley filled with talking bugs, a laid back dragon and a beautiful girl with a dark secret.
The three Bones are quite unique, with Fone playing the romantic, Phoney as the Scrooge McDuck-type money monger and Smiley acting the part of idiot savant -- or perhaps just idiot. Each is perfectly translated from the comics. The voices fit, much of the dialogue comes straight from the comics and the humor and sense wonder provide a solid foundation for the bigger adventure to come in later chapters.
Designed wisely as a point-and-click adventure, Telltale makes a few glaring omissions. The environments are typically small, which is nothing new to fans of adventures games from way back when. But even the earliest PC adventure games offered interesting interactions with much of the environment. In Bone, it's what you click is what you need to progress the game. There's no need to wander, because there is rarely anything to see beyond the main story. And considering that tale will only take about three hours to complete, even the inexpensive $20 price tag seems a little much. This is especially true if you consider that this game is only available through digital delivery, meaning Telltale isn't losing a big chunk of money to a retailer.
Despite some high-profile campaigns to get graphic books removed from schools and libraries, National Book Week chair Judith Platt points out that these kinds of challenges do not always succeed. Teachers, librarians, parents and kids often fight to keep these books available for those who do want to read them.
It's also now a video game, thanks to Telltale Games and the book's creator/writer/artist Jeff Smith. The Bones: earnest hero-protagonist Fone Bone, scheming huckster Phoney Bone, and the clownishly silly Smiley Bone, make an ideal band of would-be heroes. Thanks to their distinct personalities and a cute-but-not-sappy visual design adopted faithfully from the comic, this humorous, light-hearted point-and-click, fantasy adventure is one thing over all else: fun.
Bone: Out from Boneville is an episodic adventure game by Telltale Games. It was Telltale's first adventure game, and their second game overall, following Telltale Texas Hold'em. On October 13, 2006, a Mac port of the game was released, ported by Vanbrio.
