The Swedish games studio A Different Game today announced that they have begun development of the augmented reality game “Ghostwire” for the new Nintendo DSi platform. Using the DSi’s built-in cameras, the game allows you to find and hunt ghosts seen through the camera lens and projected onto the real world.
Ghostwire is a collection- and adventure game, where you use your handheld device to communicate with ghosts. Your portable device is used as a portal to the astral plane, and helps you find and collect ghosts that exist all around you. In your quest you use real tools, such as the built-in camera and microphone, as well as abstract ones like a “frequency modulator” for tuning in ghosts. Once you find the spirits, you document them and find out why they haunt our world. They can also give you riddles to solve. Ultimately, you can help them to find peace.
Pshhhh! Why do i even need to play this game anymore? Just kidding, Punch-Out is a great game,
