Exit for DS this October

By Robert Purchese Published 11 August, 2008

With new missions and levels.

Square Enix plans to bring DS puzzler Exit to Europe in October, packed with plenty more missions and levels.

The comic-style game puts you in the shoes of aptly-named escapologist Mr. ESC as he platforms through stages rescuing Lemming-like hostages from emergencies and leading them to safety.

According to Square Enix, the DS version's new content also includes stylus controls and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection support, which has you uploading level-completion times to a leaderboard.

We rather liked Exit on both PSP in 2006 and on Xbox Live Arcade in late 2007.

Head over to our Exit DS gamepage for a video of the game in action.

    controls could work really well on DS.

    PSP version was great, assuming a good port, I'd recommend this to anyone who likes a good puzzler and hasn't played the original.

    The point & click bits would be at home with the DS.

    Thought it was pretty boring on the PSP. I'll pass thanks.

    I've had the Japanese version since it came out a while back and the touch screen totally changes the way the game plays - so much so its a real chore to go back to the XBLA version

    You now tap where you want to go and rather than having to remember which button jumps, pulls u, etc - its now all done automatically - although a bit of Jap text for the instructions it's all quite obvious what to do

    Definitely my favourite version of the game, and would work very well on Wii (would be nice for an XBLA update to a mouse style control - point & go)

    Got the PSP version, good game. Looking forward to the sequel.

    I still occasionally play this on my 360, with the voices turned off my own music on!

    It was a good purchase and its fairly enjoyable, even if it does give me a migraine everytime I play it!

    Good luck to the DS owners :)
