Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (DS) Reviews

Hotel Dusk was brilliant. I am not a big computer game player but this particular game i played from start to finish. It's the first game i ever completed. It is the type of game where you go around talking to people, solving puzzles and mini games and picking up/using objects. I found it challenging and entertaining but not too ...  Read the complete review

Hotel Dusk room 215 is one of the best games I have played to date on the DS. These mystery/point and click style games are an aquired taste, and I've always been a fan of the genre. In hotel dusk you play as Kyle. An Ex New York cop who got fired from his job after a case gone wrong, who is now a travelling salesman. Shortly after he arrives ...  Read the complete review

I thoroughly enjoyed this title. If you're an RPG fan, I would certainly recommend it. Though this is a point-and-click format, I found the puzzles, riddles and sleuthing to be really engaging. The characterisations are great, the art and mature manga style are very appealing, and the plot is substantial and interesting. Unlike most RPGs, I did ...  Read the complete review

After buying my Nintendo DS just over a week ago I have since purchased Hotel Dusk: Room 215 and have been totally hooked on the game. That is until today when I finally finished the game. Hotel Dusk: Room 215 is a fantastic detective style game that focuses around ex-police officer turned salesman/private detective Kyle Hyde and his ...  Read the complete review

The theory behind this game really appealed to me, I love a good mystery. So I bought it and was I disappointed?? Well a little I guess. I found that the game was a bit repetitive especially if you got something wrong and got booted out - this happens quite a lot towards the end - a word from someone who got stupidly frustrated with ...  Read the complete review

I was first inspired to buy Hotel Dusk when I saw a friend playing it on their DS. I was immediately attracted by the creepy music, the vertical angle of the screens and the unique visual style. What's it about? Hotel Dusk is in essence an adventure game. You play a character named Kyle Hyde, a former NYPD cop looking for his ...  Read the complete review

FANTASTIC.........Its the only word needed to review this game!

I have just started playing this game and I don't think I will finish it. The graphics of the game aren't good compared to other DS games and I really can't get into the storyline because you're told what to do too much. I bought the game because the idea of being a detective and trying to find out the mystery sounded ...  Read the complete review

I am always borrowing my daughter's DS to play games. One of her recent ones and the one I am usually found to be playing at the moment is Hotel Dusk Room 215. Hotel Dusk uses the DS in a different way to most other games for the console. You hold the console in the same way as you would hold a book for this game, so effectively turning the ...  Read the complete review

These sorts of games have dwindled since the late 90's when Lucasarts ruled the roost, Hotel Dusk hopes to rekindele the point/click/investigate genre. You play an ex-cop called Kyle Hyde trying to track down a missing friend. You find yourself at the aforementioned Hotel Dusk where over the course of a night, you find out more than you ever ...  Read the complete review

Hotel Dusk - Room 215 for the Nintendo DS in an interesting game. I say "game", but it presents itself more like an immersive novel / interactive movie, even going so far as to adopt a book-holding pose for the DS console. You play the character Kyle, an ex-cop turned salesman. You check into a hotel, then the story begins. I ...  Read the complete review

Hotel Dusk is a novel idea. Holding your DS console sideways, it's a text based pint and tap investigation game made to resemble a detective novel. You play Kyle Hyde who is an ex-cop, and now a salesman on an assignment in 1970's Los Angeles. The intro of the game is rather long and drawn out, and getting to a part where you actually get to do ...  Read the complete review

This is a point-and-click style adventure game, with a lot of similarities to the Phoenix Wright series, (which bore more resemblance to a very beautiful, witty, interactive anime, than any sort of actual role playing game), although it does have a more innovative use of the DS features, particularly quirky little novelties like snapping the DS ...  Read the complete review

You are a man who has a checkered past and who has stumbled into a world where something doesn't seem quite right and as he used to be a policeman it is his natural instinct to try and work out what is going on and save the day before it is too late! It is a very enjoyable albeit sometimes frustrating ...  Read the complete review
