From the review, "The Starship Damrey is filled with mystery. The game starts by informing you of its unwillingness to assist you. It doesn’t tell you how to play and it doesn’t hold your hand. At first blush, you may view this game as a difficult-for-no-reason Japanese creation. But as you actually play the game, you’ll realize there’s no need to provide instructions. The Starship Damrey is simple to understand because it’s essentially a first-person point-and-click adventure game. Its main hook involves unraveling the events that occurred aboard the starship."
DHGF: The Starship Damrey is less than two hours long and costs $7.99, and that one-two punch may be enough to keep gamers from picking it up. Those that do decide to purchase it, however, will find a fun but simplistic point and click adventure game with an engaging story and very easy puzzles. The Starship Damrey will probably disappoint longtime adventure game fans, as it’s a very generic experience outside of the setting, while people who are relatively new to the genre may find it a gateway to the wide range of better offerings that are out there… and mainly PC exclusives. It’s great to see the 3DS getting another adventure game besides Murder on the Titanic, but The Starship Damrey really is a “one and done” title, offering no real replay value. Here’s hoping this is the start of several fun point and click releases for the 3DS, otherwise fans of the genre won’t really have a reason to switch from their PC to a handheld or console device.
GP writer Leah reviews The Starship Damrey on 3DS.
Gi - The Starship Damrey is a survival-horror and adventure game available for the Nintendo 3DS via the eShop. This is the first game for Level-5‘s second Guild series, Guild02. Guild02 is a compilation of games from famed Japanese creators such as Kazuya Asano & Takemaru Abiko, Kaz Ayabe and Keiji Inafune, much like how Guild01 featured four different games from notable Japanese auteurs. Unlike Guild01, this second Guild series was announced for a Western release via Nintendo Direct and all the games in Guild02 will be available to Western gamers via the eShop. The Starship Damrey is the first in the Guild02 series from Asano & Abiko, creators of the SNES classic, The Night of the Sickle Weasel. The first Guild series featured plenty of intriguing ideas from some of Japan’s most innovative creators, can The Starship Damrey continue that tradition of delivering an unique game experience?
