Not only does it show us what the DS is capable of, but a great adventure game in itself.
User Rating: 8.5 | Another Code: Futatsu no Kioku DS
Released in the US as Trace Memory and Another Code: Two memories everywhere else. Another Code delves into the tragic past of a fourteen-year-old girl named Ashley as she discovers which memories are real and which are false. After receiving a letter from her father, whom she thought was dead, summonsing her to a deserted island, Ashley must work her way through the mansion and other areas on the island to find the truth behind her father's letter. As you make you way through the rather short game you solve a variety of puzzles using all the many functions of the DS. All the puzzles are very clever and some will give your problem-solving skills a real workout. As you solve more puzzles you gradually learn more about the previous inhabitants of the island. The story is quite good and if nothing else it is unique and goes really well hand in hand with the unique puzzles given. Developer Cing have utilised the DS's functions really well, forcing you to think outside the square when solving puzzles. This is probably the best use of the DS's features in any DS game thus far and if you have a soft spot for adventure gaming you would do well to pick this up.
