Trivia game offers quizzes about the unknown

Japan's eventual burial in highly-focused DS "educational"games continues unabated, with the announcement of Gakken Muu Henshuubu Kanshuu Choujougenshou Research File (Muu Magazine Editorial Department-supervised Supernatural and Paranormal Phenomena Research File), based on Japan's Muu magazine, a monthly publication about the paranormal.

The game features over 2,000 multiple-choice, true/false, and fill-in-the-blank questions about UFOs, cryptids, and other kooky stuff. Answering questions correctly will advance your rank as an "agent" in some imaginary men-in-black type organization.

We hardly think that trivia games are going to do much to sink the DS in Japan. In fact, a trivia game about the supernatural, featuring a guy in -- what is that, a bat suit? -- sounds pretty entertaining.
