Crime fighting pretty much translates to Phoenix Wright when talking about video games, but another title aims to attract the mystery-loving fans. Nishimura Kyotaro, a Japanese writer known for winning Mystery Writers of Japan Prize in 1980 for The Terminal Man, is pulling up his sleeves once more to deliver us Kyoto Atami, Solitary Island of Murderous Traps on the DS.

Using the Stylus, players can investigate different areas by touching the most suspicious parts. Checking every nook and cranny is the only way to gather enough evidence, before concluding who the criminal is. Getting statements from witnesses and everyone involved will also play a major role in casting away the shroud of doubt often encountered when solving crimes.

No thanks to our inability to read Japanese, we can only sniff out so much. What we do know is that the game will hit the shelves come October 11. Check out these screens to give you a better idea of what this promising title is all about:
