Topic: DSiWare Recommendations Thread

I'm interested in PicDun, but I'm really puzzled about how this really works. Seems likes a weird combination of Picross and Dungeon RPG like game. But how does it work. What if you enter a wrong square that is not part of the picross puzzle.

you cant its a fixxed maze.. you can even complete the floors without completing the puzzle of the floor... to give you a basic idea what it plays like Etrian Odyssey ( but just the maping of the floor) there is no job levles and i think your all by youself to the top ) but odysses will give you a basic idea of what the games like (though the floors do not save once you leave them.. meaning the map has to be remade everytime you redo a floor

@Sneaker - The game takes place in a series of mazes that you move through in a 1st person perspective, and you occasionally have to fight a random battle. The battles have you use the touch screen to attack with simple stylus motions. It's impossible to enter a "wrong square," as all spaces of the dungeon encompass the picture that will be revealed at the end of the level, provided you find all of the spaces, as most levels have a puzzle that you must complete to enter all of the spaces in a level. You don't need to complete the puzzle to move on to the next level, as there are elevators every 5 levels that allow you to go back and re-do those previous levels in order. I hope that helps you out.

Well, I just got Telegraph Crosswords. Was that a bad idea?

Wait, you can get Excite bike for the DSI? Is that true Redmad?

Anyway, I never really looked at any of the DSI ware games and to put it bluntly, I'm too lazy to do my own research.
But I do appreciate any recomendations so anybody have any? Open to any genre, but I like challenging games so long as they aren't like...just annoyingly hard.

Re: Excitebike
"eshop account"

Ok, I'm going to go out and recommend Delbo. It is awesome, cheap fun. 200 points/ $Aus3 for a really addictive, challenging little puzzler.

I don't feel there's much point in stating the obvious DSiWare titles in this thread since everyone else already has, so some of the more obscure titles I've enjoyed recently are Dairojo and Digger Dan. Give them a try, they're well made and definitely worth playing.

i'm enjoying tetris, bejeweled, aura-aura climber, and fieldrunners as my first purchases.

I also bought the Mario Clock because I thought I could set it to play a song from my 3DS Sound library as an alarm. Little did I know that you can only play things you have recorded, and you can only record something for 10 seconds. So I recorded 10 seconds of a song that doesn't sound too horrible on a loop...

Bought Trajectile a few days ago and its awesome!

i would definetly recommend the following titles:

• x-scape ( amzing game and brings back memories for retro gamers or nes gamers)
• starship defense ( audacious tower defense game at only 5 bucks)
• trajectile ( it's a really addicting game, trust me!)

Hey guys! Can anyone recommend a AAA title that has came out within the last couple of months. The newest title I've bought was Glory Days and I've been trying to keep up with the DSiware since the, but due to all the "meh" releases it kinda hard to stay interested. No puzzlers though, but an action puzzler would be ok.

PicDun maybe? I really enjoyed it so far. It's basically a dungeon crawler with random fights. There are some puzzles in there which are required to get the 100% and solve the Picross like image on the top screen.

Oh, and Airport Mania seems pretty good as well, but I haven't tried it yet.

@cheapo - Not a whole lot has come out on DSiWare that could be considered AAA, but some of my favorite recent titles have been GO Series: Picdun, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, and Digger Dan & Kaboom.

I would consider Tetris a must-have personally. I'm having a lot of fun battling people online, although some of them are just insanely good. And I've spent a lot of time trying to beat level 4 of the computer battle.

FARM FRENZY is coming to the states on july 7 for 500.... if you like those types of games

If you're gonna get a farm game, get QuickPick Farmer. It's not AAA, but frenetically fun, only 200 points, and made by a one-man indie dev who has an account on NL.

Oh man, Farm Frenzy is awesome. I have it on the PSP Minis, and love the game to death.

But then I am a time management fan. Still. Farm Frenzy is the best of those. (and it's not a "farming game" like the previous poster suggests. At all)
