[DS] Hotel Dusk: Room 215

I think this might appeal, I'm a bit of a console geek and soon enough my games will push me out of my own home, however I saw this on the tellybox and bought it right away:

From Game's website:

Quote:
The DS system is held like a book, which allows characters on the screens to face left or right for more realistic conversations. The unique controls let even novices enjoy themselves. The unique hand-drawn character portraits and their animations are in black and white, making them exceedingly distinctive and able stand out, graphically speaking, from the rest of the game. In the tradition of Trace Memory, the use of the DS to solve riddles is alive and well in Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

Features:

* Los Angeles, 1979. Players take the role of Kyle Hyde, an ex-cop turned salesman trying to track down a missing friend. Clues lead to an eerie, old hotel rumored to have one very strange room – a room where wishes are granted. Players check in and get ready for a night of surprises as they meet a cast of unusual characters and try to unravel the mystery in Hotel Dusk: Room 215, a gritty new graphic adventure for the Nintendo DS.
* Players hold their Nintendo DS like a book and use the touch screen to grill characters, search for clues and solve mystifying puzzles.
* Players follow the plot twists and turns as they hunt for their missing friend and investigate the mysteries of Hotel Dusk.


YAY for interactive storys, grumpy ex detectives and awesome hand drawn peoples Very Happy

It is actually really good.

I have it. I must say that its excellent. Certainly up the alley of any UF member. If you liked Trace Memory, you will *love* this game.

Yeah, IMO, this is even better than Trace Memory--there's more to the story, and there are more (and more developed) characters. Smile
