Developed by Aspyr, Treasure World arrived on the Nintendo DS in 2009 as an adventure game.

It landed about 5 years into the DS's life. Other notable DS releases from 2009 include The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized and Scribblenauts.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for a weekend project (roughly 6–20 hours)
  • you've played the DS hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want fast action rather than puzzles and exploration
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Treasure World is like

Adventure games focus on exploration, story and puzzle-solving rather than combat. Progress comes from examining your surroundings, collecting items and figuring out how they fit together.

Tip for newcomers: Classic adventure games can be cryptic by modern standards. Take notes, try everything on everything, and save before risky choices.
