Hello, and welcome back to another amazing review on Nintendo DS games that you may have overlooked. If you missed out on the first review of Scribblenauts Unlimited, you can click here.

Today, I will be reviewing Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective from Capcom.

Overview:
In Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, players will be playing as Sissel's ghost, while trying to unravel the mysterious of his death. Furthermore, players will be able to possess and manipulate inanimate objects found within the game to solve various puzzles.

Gameplay:
Players will be using the stylus to manipulate inanimate objects in order to protect innocent victims and alter their fate. The strategy that the players experiment with will unravel different results which may or may not alter ones fate. In addition, players will also be given a time limit to complete each mission, failure to do so will result in death.

 

 

Pros:

• Great Graphics
• Simple Controls
• Unique Gameplay
• Fascinating Storyline
• Alternate results based on the strategy players use to solve various puzzles

Cons:

• Game was a bit short

In conclusion:
This is definitely one of the best games I've played for the Nintendo DS from the fascinating storyline to gameplay, this is one of those games where you can't help but spend countless hours on. I would definitely recommend this game for every individual who owns a Nintendo DS and encourage them to give this game a shot. I assure them that they won't be disappointed with the end result. Note, this game contains scenes of violence so it may not be age appropriate for children under the age of 10.

Rating:
9/10
