The story and some of the puzzles would perhaps concealer translate to another system, but it is the unique capabilities of the DS that help to make this game outstanding. After an intriguing introduction, we're presented with beautiful 2D scenes on the top screen, and a 3D movement screen concealer on the bottom half. These top drawings aren't always static, with the boat gently concealer rocking and Ashley's hair blowing, for example. In the top-down view of the bottom screen, Ashley can be moved with classic button keys or, best of all, with the stylus. Simply "drawing" the stylus in the desired direction moves Ashley along at a rather quick rate. The top scene changes as she enters new areas. Movement is a full 360 degrees, without restrictions. You can move ahead until blocked by a puzzle to be solved, and you can move back as much as you desire. Indeed, sometimes required step retracing can become a bit tiresome. Although you'll only encounter half a dozen or so characters, resulting conversations become critical to advancing the story.
