Well, this is about as niche as any game on this list will get. Ever since I got Phoenix Wright for my DS, I was always interested in mais mystery games for the handheld device, stuff like Professor Layton and Ghost Trick. But… I never got to play either of those games. But one I did get to play was one that was very unique in its style, known as Hotel Dusk: Room 215.
Hotel Dusk follows the protagonist, Kyle Hyde, an ex-detective and now salesman who visits a small hotel in Nevada known as Hotel Dusk, where room 215 is said to make your wishes come true. As he explore the hotel, he hopes to find clues pointing to his missing partner who was involved in a massive heist years ago. The game has all the characters drawn in these rough sketch art, and yet it really looks nice for the DS. Sure, the rest of the game is the typical 3D plane graphics of the DS, but the sketch art really makes the characters stand out. The story is also really gripping, with each character having their own backstory to them and their own plight, with each one following a sort of theme of betrayal, where they either betrayed someone or they felt they were betrayed themselves, and it makes each character interesting, some mais than others, sure, but they all have a unique character to them that makes them worth looking into. And the puzzles are so much fun in this game. You got a few simple ones, but as the game goes on, you get a ton of crazy difficult puzzles that you need to solve. They are tough, but if you use your brain and think hard enough, you’ll have the puzzle figured out in no time. All it takes is doing some thinking (Or a walkthrough). Some of my favorito puzzles are having to connect the dots to get a code for a combination or having to solve the puzzle in a computer to escape a death room. That last one really puts you on edge and makes you want to get through it as quick as possible.
Hotel Dusk is one of the few games that I wish got mais recognition. It’s a classic among mystery games, and yet no one talks about it like Ace Attorney or even Ghost Trick. It did get a sequel, but never released in America. Guess I gotta cough up a few dollars to get an English version from Europe.
#1: THE RING:
If you seen the trailer.. Your think it's just stupid movie.. But appearently it's actually a very smart movie.. I never seen it, so not certain.
#2: INSIDIOUS:
Jump scares done "right".
#3: THE GIFT:
I can't explain anything without spoiling it.
But basically Jason Bateman are dealing with an old friend, that's basically the standard creepy neighbour, being way too nice.. But the end you would not see coming..
#4: PLAY MISTY FOR ME:
A 1971 film where a guy gets stalked por a emotionally disturbed young woman, who gets way too close than he likes..

Everyday we meet helpful strangers at the grocery store, the gas station, and the bank. Most of them are just employees doing a job with a smile on their face, moving from one customer to the next, but sometimes they can take an unhealthy obsession with our personal lives..

Wow. I mean wow. I thought it wasn't possible for people to get dumber. There's the Condom Challenge, where you put a condom in your nose and pull it out your mouth and hope you don't suffocate, then there's the Cinnamon Challenge where you eat cinammon and try not to choke. But, people could get dumber. Here it is, the fogo challenge, where you set yourself on fogo for no goddamn reason. What the hell, what is wrong with this world. Are people really this stupid that they actually set themselves on fire. Apperently they do. Its even been shown on the news, for gods sake.
Well, that's all I got. This is a stupid trend that makes me wonder why the help some people have the internet. But, hey' that's only my opinion. What's Your Take
