Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors
Junpei, a normal college student, suddenly finds himself involved in a deadly conspiracy he could never have imagined. He wakes aboard an old cruise liner. Dazed and confused, he stumbles around the room he finds himself in, trying desperately to remember how he got there. The first thing he notices is a number, scrawled across the door... A bright red number 5. As Junpei's memory returns, his mind is filled with the image of a mysterious figure in a gas mask, and their haunting words: "You are going to participate in a game. The Nonary Game. It is a game...where you will put your life on the line."

This game is not for kids, or those that are sensitive. However, it is the most engaging game I have ever played. AND it keeps me coming back. There is a lot of text, but the plotline is what is so wonderful about this game. Don't let that put you off. I got it on a recommendation from a GameStop employee, and I am really glad I did.

this game has kept me on the edge of my seat for 5/6 endings! (haven't gotten the 6th yet), as stated in other reviews this game is mostly reading. so if you have qualms about reading walls of text this game is not for you! but be warned! you are missing out on a wonderful game~
the music is good, i've heard better, but it isn't horrible either. it fits the urgency and emotion of the scenes and doesn't distract from the puzzles. if you've played any of the "find your way out" games on ipod/ipad/iphone/computer/ect, that's essentially this game, just with a very well thought out story.
i picked up this game on a whim and thanks to a few recommendations from a few people.
i must admit i didn't have very high expectations, i'm not much for nintendo... not many of there games can keep me interested for long periods of time.

Can't wait to return to the nonary game in Virtue's Last Reward this October!

This is the deepest and most interesting plot a DS game can have. I was surprised, disgusted, and even brought to tears (of happiness).
**** This is a graphic adventure, not an 'action' game. No fighting or anything. Most of the game is READING!!! There are puzzles... and you get a TON of hints if you need them. ****
90% Reading/Talking, 9% Playing/Puzzles, 1% Morphic Resonance... ;)
100% Beauty.

This game... I don't know where to start. It is amazing. Usually people will pass when it comes to text based games, but this game is different. Think a game like iSpy or Professor Layton but they got 20 years more mature. It has six multiple endings! Six! That is as much as Devil Survivor! But that isn't the best part, there is a new game plus! I mean, thats pretty legit for a text-based puzzle point-n-click. Needless to say, it will keep you up for a while. It also requires smarts and lots of time. So you kids looking for professor Layton, go elsewhere. Oh yeah, and why did I yell at my poor DS? Well, I got the bad ending (or one of them). But it wasn't that I got the bad ending, it was how the ending played out. It seemed that I was in the clear and winning the game but then... STAB.....*gurgle*.....I was dead.... That isn't keeping me away. No sir. It is worth the shouting and curling up in a ball while trying to solve one of Zero's puzzles. It truly is.

Combining complex plot and puzzles makes "999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors" a satisfying mental challenge as well as a fascinating narrative. Nine characters are assembled in a sinking ship. Their objective? To make it out alive within the time limit of nine hours specified by their host/kidnapper, the mysterious Zero. I love puzzle games, but the combination of puzzle and plot really blew my mind. I'm hoping more games like 999 will be published in the U.S. in response to 999's critical and commercial success.

It's funny because the individual scores would otherwise indicate that this is a mediocre game, but the graphics, gameplay and sound are really secondary to what is essentially a visually appealing "choose your own adventure" novel. More than any other game on the system, 999's appeal comes from it's ability to tell an engaging story. So it's fortunate that 999's story is also one of the BEST on the system. It's dark, trendy, unpredictable and never feels exploitative in the least. You're never going to get the heavy-handed philosophizing or any of the overly melodramatic stuff that Japan seems to be so increasingly hung up on these days. Everything presented during the course of the story feels natural. The more dramatic scenes are always believable and carry actual emotional weight thanks to the characters. And the characters are all interesting. Some of them veer closely to established anime archtypes, but unlike most games (and anime these days), 999 does a good job of establishing WHY these characters act the way they do rather than just presenting them as walking piles of meat with a few cliched traits tacked on to create the illusion of "character." So no, the game doesn't excel in any of the categories that most people traditionally consider when describing what makes games great. The graphics and art are pretty, but static. The sound is solid, but minimalistic. The gameplay serves only to move the story along. However, if video games are simply a form of entertainment, then you're going to get all the entertainment you need out of 999.

There are already localized Visual Novels that are longer. Ever 17: The Out of Infinity is about 50-60 hours of play time and is actually by the same writer as 999. It is, however, a PC exclusive. As for Aksys games, they are simply the localization staff, and though they did do a good translation/localization job, the can't really be credited with the amazing game that is 999.

This game is perfect for: casual gamers
999 is a game for people who like adventure games. I put casual, because the people who would do "hardcore" are the CoD types, who aren't interested in this game anyways.
Anyways, imagine Saw, without all the gore, but with improved suspense, and everyone is stuck on a boat and the goal is to escape the boat before the 9 hours are up. It isn't a pixel hunting adventure game, but it is a "find items and combine them and use them to escape your current situation"
The writing is pretty good, for a video game. Much better than anything you've thought of in recent years. The music is simple, and compliments the game. The game is HEAVILY story driven, so if you have some sort of low attention span you should probably go play CoD or something lame.
Anyways, I haven't gotten far in the game yet, but the presentation is really great and the story is interesting. No gameplay is going to be exactly the same because you can move down different paths in the story and have completely different endings (what game does this lately? None do.)
Each ending/playthrough reveals more of the story, so just one playthrough will not explain the situation fully.
One of the best DS games to come out this year, totally worth it!

Wow possible one of the best storylines i have EVER played. EVEn tho it is a mix between saw and the titanic n some of the ideas arnt original the nonary game is VERY original and it is AMAZING. Everything about this game is amazing acept the worst part is that it is like 5 hours long. I was atleast expecting atleast 9 hours cause the games name but no u get 5 hours of the best story you will ever b told from someone that has a VERY sick mind. I beat 5 out of six possible endings in 7 hours now. atleast the new game plus lets u skip convos u already had. WOW such a great game but SUCHa letdown at the same time. I dunno how to review it if u like short games this ones for u if u like long games dont even touch it.
