Adventures για PSP, ΝDS & Wii

Θέλω μια φορητή κονσόλα για τις δύσκολες ώρες του "λιωσίματος" στην παραλία, τα ατελείωτα ταξίδια με τα πλοία και γενικά "για έξω" (addicted? who? me? ). Άμα είναι πάλι να μη βλέπω τίποτα λόγω αντηλιάς...

Να το πάρω για να παίζω σπίτι? Χμμ... θα μπορούσα, αλλά δεν τρελλαίνομαι κιόλας... gggrrr... πρέπει να το φιλοσοφήσω τελικά...

Thanks for the info, πάντως!

Η Microids μόλις κυκλοφόρησε την πρώτη screenshot του Syberia για το DS. Δεν 'ν' κακό, δεν 'ν' κακό...

Νέες screenshots για το Syberia στο NDS.

(Το οποίο NDS, περεπιπτόντως, πέρασε σκληρή δοκιμασία σε αμμώδη παραλία χθες με τον ήλιο και την αντηλιά να το χτυπάνε αλύπητα κι αποδείχθηκε εξαιρετική αγορά μιας και πέρασε τη δοκιμή με απόλυτη επιτυχία, χεχε.. )

Focus and White Birds announce Last King of Africa for the Nintendo DS™

We are pleased to announce that Focus Home Interactive has settled on an agreement with White Birds to publish and distribute Last King of Africa, Benoît Sokal's first adventure game for the Nintendo DS. The game will be available end of 2008.

Last King of Africa on Nintendo DS invites you on a fantastic journey deep into an imaginary Africa where you will play the role of young Ann Smith, daughter of the last king of Maurania. Ann is on her way to assist her dying father on his deathbed when her plane crashes near a city held by a rebel faction, on the north side of the country. Ann lives through this terrible accident and wakes up with amnesia in a princeʼs palace. That is how her extraordinary journey begins.

In order to develop the game on the Nintendo DS, this amazing adventure created by Benoit Sokal had to be totally rethought with regard to Paradise on the PC. The numerous puzzles and mind-teasers throughout the game have been completely reworked and now offer an original and intuitive gameplay that takes advantage of the Nintendo DS functions. The use of the stylus, microphone and your own logic will be of capital importance in solving the puzzles and mind-teasers.

The story itself has undergone some refreshing changes and is now much more coherent and surprising. These modifications are notable in the radical change in the relationships between the principal characters and in the combination and simplification of the dialogues that retain only the essential information needed to understand the story line without artificially prolonging the game. Still with the same intention of facilitating comprehension, Nintendo DSʼs dialogue interface offers a more expressive identification of the characters. The characters are now displayed with a close up shot on the DSʼ upper screen. Also, 3D action phases have been eliminated to make Last King of Africa a true, pure and traditional point & click adventure game.

Finally, Last King of Africa on Nintendo DS has equipped itself with a clear and detailed layout of the gameʼs zones for increased ease of orientation during the course of the adventure. The game has also equipped itself with a help system to lend a hand to players during exploration phases and to avoid fastidious « pixel hunting ». Thanks to its magnificent 2D scenes in which detailed 3D characters evolve, perplexing mind-teasers and exciting alternative stories, Last King of Africa has all the necessary qualities to make this a great Nintendo DS adventure.

Last King of Africa will be released on Nintendo DS end of the year 2008.
