I just found my mom’s birthday present. Nintendo has announced that, on September 8, 2008, Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir will be released on the Nintendo DS. The Big Fish Games title will require players to act as detectives, finding hidden items in painted scenes in order to discover who gets to inherit a million dollars.

So like the Mystery Case Files for computers, players will just have to find items from a list. The DS version adds some extra features though, that wouldn’t be possible for PC versions. The touch screen is used for searching, and the microphone will also be used throughout the course of play. Also Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir will be the first game in the series that will allow players to play the game with each other.

My mom seriously adores these kinds of puzzles. I remember when I was a kid, I had a Highlights subscription. She was the one who’d always grab the hidden item puzzles to complete them. It’s nice to see a wider variety of quality, casual games being released for the DS.
