World’s first location-based DS title revealed

June 05, 2007 in News comments 5

To err is human, to arr is pirate. Welcome to the world of Plundr, an initially PC-based location-based gaming experience that's coming to the all-conquering Nintendo DS where players utilise real-world destinations to progress through the game.

This is rather nifty. Developer area/code recently assembled a pirate-themed PC game, "Plundr", which uses real-world locations as an integral part of its gameplay, with players required to visit certain landmarks (represented by desert island icons) on an interactive street map in order to progress.

    Wow, that's really interesting but if it actually requires us to go to these areas that would be kind of *bleep*ed =\. Can you imagine

    "Go to Las Vegas"
    Wtf I live in New York .

      Seriously. Wth. I doubt anyone is going to waste the time, effort, or money to travel a large distance just for a game, if it's actually like that, that is.

    Nice idea, but will everybody be able to play this game from anywhere or just areas such as Chicago or Tokyo? As with Boktai, at least it will sort out them slouches, but will any slouches buy this hmm?

    I think this is interesting but I think like FFXFREAK said if they say "Go to Las Vegas" and you live in New York that would be weird o_0
