At the Tokyo Game Show, the director of Ace Attory, Shu Takumi, has announced a new series for the Nintendo DS. Ghost Trick will follow the tale of Sissel, “an amnesiac ghost who must use his ghostly powers to protect the lives of innocent people while attempting to uncover the secrets behind his own untimely demise.” Sounds good to me.
Sissel also has some God-like abilities, where he’s able to manipulate objects, and can change the fate of dead characters by going back 4 minutes before their death to change their destiny.
Capcom describes the title as part adventure game, part puzzle game. Listed below are some of the game’s features, and some new screenshots:
