NinDS - Touch Detective
The game is very cute and pretty simple, as far as games go. I'm no gamer so, this is just the right speed for me. The only problem is that your help is "Fungi" a mushroom that doesn't really offer any form of help and Cromwell the butler, who invents/fixes things to help Mackenzie with her cases. Other than that, you're on your own if you get stuck. There have been a few times that I've had to go through every scene clicking random things and people in hopes of finding the missing piece. Maybe I'm just going about it wrong or don't have a mystery-solving mind, but a few times it felt like the trail ran cold, BUT the game won't let you progress until you find that one thing. And you may not even know if you're looking for a door, person, item, or just a new bit of conversation that was unlocked when you found the last hint. It can get kinda frustrating, but the game is pretty simply made so, it's there. It's just a matter of whether or not you SEE it.

I'm sure that there's a cheat site

NinDS - Touch Detective
This is a fun game. I do enjoy puzzles, including mysteries. This time I feel like being very cut and dry; I shall give you the cons and pros in that order.


Cons:

1. Replayability. As sad as it is for me to say, I often try to avoid "Detective" games because once you solve the mysteries, there's little to no replayability. This one is no exception: once you complete the four main mysteries, your best chance of replayability is in the Bonus episode. Even that is limited.

2. Frustration. You can get stuck on the simplest things. When you are stuck, it immediately "freezes" gameplay in it's tracks, and you can't do anything. I've been forced to put the game down and go online for help. Quite annoying.

3. Silly cases. While still fun, it's a letdown to not have any "real" mysteries. Basically, you figure out who stole Penelope's dreams (who cares?), How to save an ice fairy, who kidnapped Penelope (again, who cares?), and who assaulted a bunch of *SPOILER COMING UP, YOU MAY

It's a very fun game. If you enjoy detective type of game, you'll enjoy this one. It's pretty short though. It only took me three days to beat it. However, I sure had fun during the process. There's some humor in it, too. Chloe is a pretty funny character. The graphic is pretty and the music is great.

Read the review over at IGN and it didn't do too well. IGN score of only 5.5.
