This DS point and click adventure(AKA Another Code) is now out in Europe and Australia. North America has to wait a couple months. I'm hoping someone here bought it and can give impressions.
Yeah, I'll buy this regardless of any reviews (so I won't read them and ruin some of the surprise) because I love the genre. I also feel the need to support it since a game like this would almost certainly have stayed in Japan if the DS wasn't in such desperate need of new software.
Adventure fans seem to enjoy it, but then again I think they tend to overrate adventure games in general (if it doesn't outright suck, it's great), so who knows.
I'm definitely looking forward to this. It's not my prefered style of the genre (I much prefer the Tim Schafer brand of point and click adventure games to the Myst/Syberia style), but I hope it turns out good either way.
It is really too easy, I don't think a puzzle posed took me more than a few seconds to know what I had to do (the only one I could have had a problem I was spoiled by a review ...) and I usually suck at those games. The puzzles make good use of the DS capabilities though. And it is really short, I finished it in a little more than 4 hours.
