Why you can trust 12DOVE
Right: Sprechen sie Deutsch? Nein? Too bad
That said, this DS version looks crisp and the Da Vinci Code-style storyline of a girl investigating the disappearance of her father who was studying Tunguska (a meteorite explosion in Russia at the turn of the 20th century) begs to be followed.
Western point and click adventures aren’t in huge supply on the DS so we certainly wouldn’t want to put you off this. It’s not constant action and excitement, but it is a solid, focused and unashamedly old-fashioned adventure.
