Why is no one talking about this game, Jesus fucking Christ. 
 
It's like, what if you made a Phoenix Wright style adventure game with logic puzzles kind of like Layton while stealing the room escape concept from all those not so hot flash games and then slapped an M on the front of the box so that you could make it gory as fuck and actually have people die as a consequence of your action or, you know, have any kind of branching story path at all. 
 

GENIUS.

And the best part is that everyone can potentially die, which means I can't spoil anything! 

THEY FUCKING KILL A BLIND GUY. ISN'T THAT AWESOME!?  

 
 And everyone has bombs in their intestines so they always die in the worst way possible except for the when everyone dies in the best possible way that someone could die in any game ever.   

Did I mention that there are multiple endings, because there are totally multiple endings. 
 

THERE'S LIKE SIX ENDINGS. 

 
And they actually thought to take this into consideration and added a fucking fast forward button to everything so playing through multiple times isn't completely intolerable! 
 

DID I MENTION THAT A BLIND GUY GETS KILLED.

 
And the story is great and it's all about psychic powers and the Titantic and mummies and the chemical composition of ice and everything that ever happened having to do with the number 9 and kidnapping and making the best horrible jokes all the time constantly whenever the opportunity presents itself. 
 
Why does this forum only have like three topics. 
 
Why are you all horrible people. 
 
You should all feel ashamed. 
    

"And the best part is that everyone can potentially die, which means I can't spoil anything! 

Way to spoil the shit out of a game you're trying to convince people to play.

All I could think about when reading that was Butchie getting killed in "The Wire". And that made me think about Omar Little killing people in "The Wire".
 
Now I want to watch "The Wire" again.

Well, you sorta spoiled a bunch here... just telling us that people can die is an experience the player should figure out on his own. Accidentally reading through this post has made me want to play this game less. "

 You had me at  "It's like, what if you made a Phoenix Wright style adventure game with logic puzzles kind of like Layton while stealing the room escape concept from all those not so hot flash games and then slapped an M on the front of the box so that you could make it gory as fuck and actually have people die as a consequence of your action or, you know, have any kind of branching story path at all." 
 
And then you go into about how the characters can die, and you throw stuff in like 
" And everyone has bombs in their intestines so they always die in the worst way possible except for the Axe Ending  where everyone dies in the best possible way that someone could die in any game ever."
 
The Mass Effect comparison isn't valid, because the whole time they're like
"IT'S A SUICIDE MISSION"
Not to mention it was one of the largest marketed games of the year. I never even heard of this game, and it seems like this is a game I would want to know as little as possible going in. If you would have stopped after the first paragraph I would have almost had to go out and buy it.

I bet the blind guy never saw it coming.

Is there any action in this game? Because if not than A: I am interested and B: I might get it for my mom.

If you mean in the gameplay, then no.  If you mean in the story, then yes.  God yes. "

I dig the enthusiasm, but finding out these things on your own is part of the experience. This game was filled with "Oh, shit!" and "Wait, WHAT?!" moments, half the thrill was encountering them on your own. 
I can see how people who have not played it might think the post is spoiler-ific because they don't know anything about the game. But really, most of the information about the plot of the game in the post is incorrect. 
  

The next section is for those who want to know more about the game, without spoilers.

BUY IT!

This sounds like my kind of game. Shame I live in Europe, I don't even need to look up if it's released here, it wont be.

I'll pass on this game, and not feel bad for passing on it. There I said it.

BLIND PEOPLE

Dude don't be crazy. I'm not going to buy a DS just for this game. I always hate it when people say you are a bad person for not buying this game. What if I can't play it period? Am I still a bad person? "

I bought this game because of the review but your post was a bit spoilerific, i had no idea about the bombs in their stomachs or the death plot... I just knew get out before 9 hours were up..so...XP thanks for the spoiler i guess.

This game truly is fucking amazing.  I just finished getting all the endings last night.  To me though, the biggest flaw in the game is how it feels compelled to overly explain every damn little thing.   I'm not talking story-wise (although sometimes that's a problem too), i'm talking about gameplay.  It ALWAYS needs to tell you how to solve the puzzle, and by the time you've seen that type of puzzle for the 2nd, 3rd, 5th time, you're just shouting at your DS "I already fucking know how to do this!  Shut up and let me get back to the damn game!"

I downloaded it last night, but you're still very rude.

I was thinking about playing this game until I read this one post by some asshole where he tells you way too much about the game and ruins some of the mystery of it.

I don't feel bad.  Not one bit. 

" I was thinking about playing this game until I read this one post by some asshole where he tells you way too much about the game and ruins some of the mystery of it. "

No you really did ruin alot of the game.  I came into it knowing almost nothing, and it was better because of that.  Now people who have read this thread are going to be looking for the stuff you've mentioned, instead of just having it happen and being surprised by it.

I have ruined nothing.  You have no god damn idea the shit this game gets up to.  I couldn't even sleep for like three days because of this god damn game. "

see, now you're almost going too far; Nier has left me thinking about Nier for LONG LONG LONG past when I played it (mostly due to the constant updating of the Grimoire Noir, but whatever) but I don't tell people that :P I am interested but I dunno, "

I'M SORRY. 
 
I would probably play this game if I still had the charger to my phat DS.

I don't feel bad because I don't play handheld games unless they are on my phone.

If this was on the iphone I would check it out. I hope developers start to realize that this is going to be the way to go in the future.

  

  

BAD END... GET? 
This track gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it. Makes me remember the HORRIBLE endings available. (Horrible as in "OH MY GAWD WHY?!" Not horrible as in quality.)

The iPhone is good for gaming...assuming you barely need to control your game.   If you need any kind of precision, you're screwed.

I'm pretty interested in this game, gonna have to track it down^^

At the end of the game you find out the girl you've been dry humping since grade school is a time paradox and doesn't actually exist.
