Hotel Dusk: Room 215-Mystery Novel on DS Pay attention to what every character has to say or the plot thickens	By Filip Truta, Games Editor 27th of January 2007, 14:49 GMT Adjust text size:


Take control of an interactive mystery novel and discover the secrets of Hotel Dusk. Who is Kyle Hyde? Why is he haunted by his past? What really happened in Room 215? Take the stylus in your hand and navigate through the story's twists and turns and just maybe you will learn the answers. For those who are patient enough and have a steady temper, the attention demanding is an endless task of scrolling text and watching out for anything that might pop up that furthers the plot. Not exactly a kid's game; older people should definitely try this one out if they have the time. Patience is a virtue in this game. A surprising plot, clever dialogue, and an intriguing cast of supporting characters accompany our hero, Kyle Hide, on his journey on solving the mystery behind the door of room 215. The touch-screen-focused title allows players to choose any skill level they can play. By engaging in conversations with shady bellboys, chatty maids and secretive "femme fatales" (each with dark secrets of their own), the player determines the path of the story. It requires a high degree of patience and thoughtfulness, that probably not everyone is capable of and which could bore many who like more action and less story-line, but anyone looking for a cerebral challenge is sure in for the time of their lives. Original and innovative graphic style combined with unique camera control and angles highlight the purpose of everything like a reminder that nothing is to be missed making it a full-time job for whoever plays it.
