Name: Lux-Pain
Genre: Adventure
Platform: Nintendo DS

It’s not often that I play a game that, without being broken, has few positive things I can say about it. I had no idea what to expect when recently-localized DS title Lux-Pain landed on my desk, but it seemed promising at first. A mystery-solving adventure game with an original story? That should have been right up my alley. Instead, I found myself with a headache of a game that contained barely any gameplay, other than the occasional scratching and tapping of stylus on touch screen. With poor translation and a lackluster narrative, Lux-Pain quickly falls from potential surprise to forgettable mess.
