Item Description

Late December, 1979. Kyle Hyde, an ex-NYPD detective now working as a traveling salesman, checks into a fading hotel in the Nevada desert with a sample case, a short temper and an unanswered question about his old partner, Brian Bradley, who vanished years earlier. Hotel Dusk: Room 215, developed by Cing and published by Nintendo in 2007, plays out over that one long night, as every guest turns out to be hiding something and the rumor of a room that grants wishes keeps pulling Kyle back toward 215.

The presentation alone sets it apart from almost anything else in the DS library. You hold the system sideways like a book, with dialogue and scenery spread across both screens, and the rotoscoped characters are drawn in a sketchy, pencil-on-paper style that shifts expression mid-conversation like a living graphic novel. The painterly backgrounds give the hotel a worn, lonely atmosphere that suits Kyle perfectly.

Kyle is a wonderful lead, sharp-tongued and world-weary, and the game is built on talking to people. Conversations demand attention: push the wrong guest too hard or ask the wrong question and the hotel manager will throw you out. Between interrogations, puzzles make clever use of the hardware, calling on the touchscreen, the microphone and even the DS's clamshell lid, and each chapter closes with a quiz on what Kyle has pieced together so far. The pacing is unhurried and some critics found it linear, but the writing rewards patience, and the guests' stories slowly knot together with Kyle's own.

Cing, the studio behind Trace Memory, followed it up with Last Window: The Secret of Cape West, set in Los Angeles a year later, but the studio's bankruptcy meant that sequel was never released in North America. That makes Hotel Dusk the only Kyle Hyde mystery to reach American shelves, and the place to go if you have ever wanted a DS game to read like a late-night noir paperback.
