    This game starts out all right. Then it becomes all about stylus exercises that my DS Lite doesn't really make possible. It would have been better if I had realized how lame this game is from the start. Instead it gets really boring about 4 hours in. What a waste of time!

    Boring, frustrating controls and really poor dialogue. So many people seem to be bigging this game up but it is terrible. If you are a fan of Point N Click/SCUMMVM games you will be highly diaspointed.

    I'm reasonably intelligent with fair gaming experience.....I score this game so poorly because it keeps stalling.... meaning that sometimes the next point of important plot will only happen if you do X followed by Y followed by B !! ..... which results in the need for me to go online and refer to a walk through.......If this had only happened once or twice... fair enough... but itI'm reasonably intelligent with fair gaming experience.....I score this game so poorly because it keeps stalling.... meaning that sometimes the next point of important plot will only happen if you do X followed by Y followed by B !! ..... which results in the need for me to go online and refer to a walk through.......If this had only happened once or twice... fair enough... but it happens too often.. and the exact questions that I need to ask have been asked very often by other people ... so I'm not alone. I can only recommend this if you are willing to exit the game ( break immersion )....go find out what you need to do next... get back into it....and if it was under £5.00… Expand

    With a cast of well-written characters, branching conservations, and a cool interface, this is the adventure the DS has been dying for. [Feb. 2007, p.97]

    Impatient gamers looking for a little more action may want to look elsewhere, but they'll do so at the risk of missing our on yet another groundbreaking DS title. [Mar. 2007, p.88]

    Hotel Dusk probably won't appeal to every DS gamer, as it requires a degree of patience and thoughtfulness that only the aged (and insane) are capable of. But anyone looking for a cerebral and deliberate challenge should definitely check out this cool and unique title; just be patient with it.
