    Closing Comments Fans of games like Phoenix Wright and The Secret of Monkey Island are going to love Ghost Trick. It's a spirited point-and-click adventure that manages to innovate in an aging genre and the animation has to be seen to be believed. Provided you're not averse to reading, you'll find this Trick to be a treat. Read more

    In Ghost Trick, you're better off dead. Stepping into the spirit of a recently-deceased fellow with no memory of who he was or why he was murdered, you have one night to unravel these mysteries. Luckily, your new status among the non-living has granted you some useful supernatural abilities that will help in your quest for justice. This clever adventure game from the makers of Phoenix Wright provides one of the last great hurrahs for the Nintendo DS. Read more

    Dying sucks. In games, dying means the loss of valuable lives, or even loss of hard earned loot. Sometimes dying means loading up an old save, and who knows how far back that might be. Nobody likes dying. It’s even the worse in the real world, where I hear there aren’t any checkpoints at all. But dying doesn’t always have to suck. Sometimes we come back smarter and stronger than before, ready to tackle impossible challenges with a new frame of mind. Read more

    I wouldn’t suggest purchasing a DS for Ghost Trick - it isn’t a system seller. While it’s definitely worth experiencing, it is more a story than a game and while I’ve reread plenty of my favourite books more than once, some time needs to pass before I can. If you have a DS already however, you have no reason not to get Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective - unless you only ever play skill based games no matter what - in which case I would like to remind you that you have a DS.
