Square Enix Brings Creepy Horror to DS
Play this mettlesome and you haw expire in heptad days.
Square Enix is bucking its artefact of Final Fantasy remakes to alter an example horror title, Nanashi no Game (”The Game With No Name”) to Nintendo DS.
The gameplay looks to verify a tender from preceding DS undertaking games much as Hotel Dusk: Room 215, and modify plays the aforementioned way, with the DS tilted sideways.
But here’s the twist: Nanashi introduces the intent of a maledict game, a la The Ring, that not exclusive affects the in-game characters, but the contestant as well. You’ll also intend to undergo the mettlesome within the mettlesome (in the modify of a retrospective RPG), and intend concerned messages via an programme that looks meet same the Nintendo DS’ face end.
The mettlesome is ordered for promulgation on July 3rd in Japan. No announcements of a promulgation right Japan, yet.
I’m every for more realistic undertaking games on the DS — I idolized both Trace Memory and Hotel Dusk — and I’m ease hoping that every the artist LucasArts games — anything from Maniac Mansion to the Monkey Island program — module someday materialize on the DS. In their absence, this looks rattling interesting.
