13-year-old Ashley Mizuki Robbins and a strange ghost named D are in charge of tackling two mysteries across these legacy titles, now enhanced for Nintendo Switch. Her parents are Richard and Sayoko Robbins, researchers of human memory. They go missing and Ashley stays with her aunt for a while. That’s when she experiences nightmares and years later, she receives a package that is supposedly from her father. This kicks off the first title.

Expect riddles that will have you sleuthing out clues from both objects and people. Brain-teasing puzzles can be tackled with the optional puzzle tips that let you progress in the story. Conversations can help you piece together solutions to puzzles. And the helpful DAS (Dual Another System) keeps track of useful information for you. This can also be used to keep track of relationships between important characters.
