Amazed at the many things this little DS platform can do. Aim to bring the full potential and all fun things the Japanese are already doing to the other side of the Pacific.

[Houkago Shounen] Introduction

This is an adventure game from Konami. The game web site is here.





The game is set in 1970s in a small city block in Japan. The main character's name is Osamu. He is going to move to a new school in a month. Each day he needs to go to school and he has to go back home at night. And the game play is centered around his adventure after school for this last month. He can visit places, interact with other characters and play mini-games.

The one thing that immediately gets my attention is the music. It is so nostalgic. You can hear the theme song from the game web site.

Here is a video clip of the game.

This reminds me of a Miyazaki movie. Looks like an interesting game.
