Providing challenging puzzles and hours of entertaining gameplay for a young audience, Case Closed: One Truth Prevails is packed with mini games and spy gadgets, including a solar powered skateboard and a voice changing bow tie.
In Case Closed: One Truth Prevails the lead character is 17 year old Shichi Kudo, a very intuitive high school detective, well known in Japan as a modern day Sherlock Holmes. Shichi is on a mission to infiltrate a secret group known as the ‘Black Organisation’ when he is drugged with a poison that was meant to kill him, but instead transforms him into a seven year old boy. In his new body, Shichi adopts the alias Conan Edogawa and pretends to be a child whilst continuing to secretly solve cases.
Players guide Conan on his quest to find clues about the origins and workings of the secret ‘Black Organisation’ in order to bring the biggest criminal of the time to justice.
The Wii remote is used to move the young detective and touch or manipulate objects. It can also be used as a magnifying glass when players lead Conan undercover to investigate crime scenes and search for clues.
Offering fun and challenges for a young audience, Case Closed: One Truth Prevails is released on Nintendo Wii today by Nobilis and Ascaron Entertainment.
