worth importing? - Defunct Games

When a nasty situation arises in a galaxy near you, who
can you look to for help these days? The DNA Integrated
Cybernetic Enterprises, that’s who!
Based on the popular kids’ cartoon of the same name, DICE the
video game brings home the excitement of the hit TV show in
mission-based singleplayer fashion. Select from a number of playable
DICE characters and experience the raw power of each member’s
individual Dinobreaker: giant robotic dinosaurs, armed to the gills with
customizable weapons, that can also transform into super-charged
vehicles. Battles can be fought from both inside the friendly confines
of a Dinobreaker, or on the outside where hand-to-hand combat skills
reign supreme.
Between missions, players will have access to their garage where
collected scrap metal can be used towards upgraded Dinobreaker parts
and bots. A One-on-one fighting mode is also available in-between
missions for 1-2 players.

In one half of Indigo Prophecy, you’re Lucas
Kane. To find out why you went into a
trance and killed a man, you have to outrun
the NYPD. In the other half, you’re police
detectives Carla Valenti and Tyler Miles,
who’re trying to solve the murder Lucas
committed.
Playing Indigo Prophecy is a constant process
of trying to outwit yourself. You can call it an
adventure game, but it’s hard to define so simply.
It’s more like an interactive David Lynch movie,
both atmospheric and surreal, where every choice
you make legitimately changes what’ll
happen next.
In a given environment, you can interact
with almost anything you can see, using
experimentation, exploration, and the occasional
minigame to change the story. For instance, in the
first chapter, Lucas has to clean up the scene of
his murder. How well you do that will determine
whether Carla and Tyler can find you in the
chapters to come.
It’s decidedly bizarre, but Indigo Prophecy both
looks and feels genuinely innovative. If nothing
else, it’s something new, and we don’t see enough
of that.
