NMS: Planet Puzzle League hands-On

If this is a league of planetary bodies comprised of many puzzles, we want in. If this is a planet full of puzzle leagues, we want in. Okay, we just want in. Our fondness for puzzle games is well-documented in these parts, so it should be no surprise to you that we want this game. We want it now. But, alas, we must wait, as Joystiq reports the game isn't due out until next month. But, in the mean time, we can read about their exploits with the puzzle game at the Nintendo Media Summit.


Played entirely through the touch-screen, the player is charged with holding the DS in the book style (like when playing Brain Age). But, we're happy to report, that even though the folks at Joystiq find the gameplay to be kind of de rigeur as far as puzzlers go, the inclusion of full voice chat between two players over Wi-Fi Connect, along with up to four players over ad-hoc gameplay, should instill some more value into the title.
