The 3DS is a wonder of modern technology the 3D is incredible and the system itself is a powerhouse. There is one characteristic which I find most interesting, the ability of augmented reality game play. This is when the world you live in is changed slightly or played in. IE you traverse the room you are actually in, instead of a generated one. This can make for some very imaginative games. Majesco has released a good example of this: The Hidden.

In this game you play the part of a GEIST, Ghost Entity Investigation Strike Team, member. In this role you job is to hunt down ghosts in your surroundings. These ghosts come in different sizes and shapes and hide in plain sight! Using the 3DS as a ghost viewer the player has to look around their surroundings for entities. These entities can hide anywhere from your living room, inside the car, or even the bedroom. The ghosts fly around and you must shoot them with one of your many weapons to destroy them. This game is quite fun when in a room alone. With more then one person you definitely feel a bit odd, but the game is really fun. Since this game takes your attention away from where you are walking extra care should be taken when playing outside especially in an unenclosed area.

If little ones are playing make sure they are playing somewhere that they can walk around and not bump into anything that can hurt them. But, I think this is one for the 10 and up crowd, personally. Maybe not a living room, but a play room with no breakables in it. This game does involve exploration as well, so it might not be the best idea for someone in a tiny apartment setting, but kids would have fun investigating different areas looking for ghosts. This game isn’t the deepest of stories or the most challenging but it is fun exploring and finding ghosts to fight. This is a good game for little ones aged 10-12 as well as something fun to mess around with for adult gamers and kids.
