Trace Memory

A good puzzle/adventure game

User Rating: 8.3 | Another Code: Futatsu no Kioku DS

By Warfust | Review Date: May 13, 2006

This fun puzzle/adventure game continues to grow on you the more you play it. It uses all of the features of the DS in it's puzzles without making it so difficult that you feel the need to get a guide., and makes great use of the duel screen in it's presentation of the storyline as well. You explore the area on the top screen from an overhead view and interact with the objects around you from a first person perspective on the bottom screen.

It's not often that I find a puzzle game of this nature that can hold my attention, but the intriguing story line kept me going back for more.

Pick up this often overlooked game, you won't be dissapointed!
