Very Hard!
I bought this game a while ago and I don't think it's too innaporopriate. There is some violence, a few deathss, and a lot of language. The game is fun but hard, and the reading is very Heavy, Most of the game is hearing what everyone has to say and deciding what to say yourself. The rest is solving puzzles thar are fun but tough. One of the puzzles near the end (*s*p*o*i*l*e*r* *a*l*e*r*t*) I accidently figured out when I kept losing and then put it on sleep, and later opened it up to figure out that I was supposed to close the DS!(s*p*o*i*l*e*r* *o*v*e*r*). The story is a good one but very coplicated to understand. But the game is a very good one!!!

Excellent game, for me.
I played this game myself, and while I don't really think it's inappropriate for children...I don't think the average child could keep up with the game. And what's the point of buying it, if you're not able to understand what's going on? I loved it, but I think a 10-12 year old would quickly tire of the reading.

An difficult, but entertaining interactive murder mystery. They puzzles and challenges all require logic. However the plot revolves around a shooting and several other murders. THe cut scenes shown dead people lying on the ground, people being shot. Posters and a magazine show pictures of women in bikinis. Frequent usage of minor swears. But the alcohol usage is the big issue; the main character is an alcholic, scenes take place in bar, you are invited to drink with people, and more.

Pause, but don't think too hard.
I've played T games before, and, though I certainly do not encourage it, language is one of the least worries I have with games. This game made me cringe, having the occasional D and A words. However, this alone shouldn't be enough to scare you away from such a good game. Everyone I've heard review this game say it is great, and I agree. The game includes some moral problems, which are solved by the main character (i.e. a young man steals a large sum of money, and the main character teaches him responsiblity). This is not too prominant, but if you are looking at this game simply for its educational value, you are looking in the wrong place. There is some violence (mainly one scene where the main character fires a gun, and then a man is shown falling--this scene appears about 7 times in the game). There is also some scenes which a young child (fair warning--her mom is missing, and I know that might by a sore topic with some) argues with her father. There is no violence, simply what you would see in a father-child movie. There are other scenes/refrences to violence, but nothing I would worry about. An issue for most parents would be the drinking. The main character is a drinker, and spends some time in the bar later in the game, as do some other characters. Perhaps the worst of this is when one of the characters gets heavily drunk and slurs his words and gets angry easily. I personally find this slightly funny, as it is rare for me to see people getting drunk in games. Nevertheless, parents who are trying to steer clear of this subject in games may not want their children to play this. I was 12 when I played this, and all I could focus on the entire game was the storyline--that's a good sign, folks.
