Today Namco Bandai announced that it has a new brain teaser in the works for the DS called QuickSpot. A game of concentration, the player's objective is to spot the differences between two nearly identical pictures and circle them on the touch screen, much like that Photo Hunt game down at your local watering hole (no word, yet, on whether or not Namco Bandai will be including an Erotic QuickSpot mode).
QuickSpot contains three single player modes: Rapid Play, Focus Play, and Today's Fortune. Rapid Play sends players through five levels, each containing 10 stages and a boss at the end of each level. Players win medals for solving puzzles and raising their "Brain Activity". Brain Activity is based on Intuition, Concentration, Recognition, Stability, and Judgment. Focus play contains 140 pictures with 10 differences each for the player to spot, and Today's Fortune gives the player their Health, Study, Romance, and Money fortune for the day.
QuickSpot also includes three multiplayer modes: Time Bomb, Scramble Mode, and Download Play. In Time Bomb up to eight players pass one DS around between turns, whereas Scramble Mode and Download Play allow players to compete against each other on multiple systems.
QuickSpot is based on a Japanese game called Machigai Museum. For the US version, Namco has replaced many of the cute but obscure Japanese art with more recognizable (and still often cute) images from classic Namco videogame favorites. For some extra fun while you're waiting for QuickSpot to come out, take a look through our image gallery and see if you can match which pictures are from which game. (HINT: The one with the cars isn't R:Racing Evolution.)
QuickSpot will be testing your attention to detail this spring.
