A new Visual Novel for the Nintendo DS, 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors offers not only a unique video game experience but also challenges players to think about moral and philosophical issues.
999 tells the story of Junpei, a college kid who was mysteriously kidnapped and trapped on a sinking ship. Now, Junpei only has the titular 9 hours in order to escape, and he must work with the other 8 people aboard the ship if he wants to stay alive. Oh, and if that weren’t enough, he and his comrades all have bombs placed within their stomachs, and they must play their kidnapper’s “Nonary Game” if they don’t want to be blown up from the inside-out.
