Another Code : Two Memories I have not finished « Hotel Dusk » yet but I started another Nintendo Ds game. I have already played at it before but I had to stop because my microphone was down and I could not pass a moment when I had to use it. Now, I can play it again. The first time I have played it, I really enjoyed it. The musics were beautiful and the sounds very realistic, the pictures were detailed and the characters, especially the main character, were lovely and charming. I still enjoy the game today. The story, as Hotel Dusk, is a king of detective story, but from a child point of view. I think the very title is mysterious. The first seconds of the game introduces the story. It is presented in a comics way with vignettes. Apparently, it begins in 1948 at Blood Edward Island (blood ? quite conforting and reassuring, right ?) I don't learn many things but a child sees his father killing someone or being killed by someone. Of course, he is very confused and tries to stop it but he fails. The next picture indicates « 1994 - Seattle ». That's quite an elipsis... I can see a young woman. She is black-haired and brown-eyed. She is talking to somebody called « Ashley » who must be her daughter. She asks her to hide somewhere. The latter sees her mother killed. She cannot do anything but crying « mummy ». I know, it's quite gloomy... The next stage is in 2005 at Blood Island Island. Oh-oh...Back again on a crime scene  ? It might be one of the most important places of the game. A man looking like a scientific is talking about some finished important work. He looks feeling relieved. Someone arrives and you see the name « Richard ». It may be the scientific's name. The man who's just arrived points a gun at Richard and... that's when I get at the menu screen (frustrating, isn't it?). I choice to start a new game and the screen turns black. All I can see is white text appearing at the bottom. Someone is talking about what happens before his or her fourteenth birthday. The teenager is heading towards Blood Edward Island (now I'm sure it is the heart of the game!). He is going there by boat : that may explain why he is feeling bad. But I learn the sea is not responsable for his feeling. That's because of some emotions : excitement, confusion, happiness...It's the first time he has ever felt that way and that blend of emotions is caused by a piece of news he got few time before : his father is alive (maybe the first child we see at the beginning?) That's all for this time ! :)
