Inkheart has great graphics for the left screen. The right screen is hard to see and the detail just is not there. You hold the game console like a book.
There is a lot of reading. It plays much like a book. You read and then gather items to solve small problems in order to move forward in the story.
If you like a lot of reading and small amount of gameplay then this is for you. The storyline is good and enjoyable.
There is just not that much game play.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inkheart - Adventure Game, June 24, 2009

This review is from: Inkheart (Video Game)

Hi - I am an adult gamer...I own over 70 games for the Nintendo DS.

At first I did not "get" Inkheart. Once I got that it is a classic game similar to the original Apple adventure, I fell in love with it. It took me forever to figure out to put the newspaper under the door and use the pencil to remove the key...

In this adventure, the graphics are beautiful. If you hold down the "A" those locations that do or will have significance sparkle. You are always told exactly what your mission is.

Great game for classic puzzle solving adventurers. If you liked Coraline, you will probably love Inkheart.

Hi I'm an autistic adult gamer.

This is my review on InkHeart for Nintendo DS.

I was in GameStop and decided to pick up this DS game because I had seen preview's for the movie on tv and so from the cover even this drew curiousity to me to want to play this game. So I bought it new for 14.99 which I think is strange for a new game for the price to be that low but anyway's. I'm glad I bought this game the graphic's are beatiful and the game read's like a book were you have to turn your DS system to play the game but I like it like that because it makes the game more interesting. All I can say is if you like interesting games that have a little bit of mystery to them then get this DS game.

You might just like it. I know I like it.

Happy Gaming!
