The Last Window - a great game for writers
I just got Last Window The Secret of Cape West for my Nintendo DS. It's a terrific game and a great follow up to Hotel Dusk. It's also in my opinion a great game for writers. The game is like a novel and the dialogue and narrative is excellent and is a good lesson in how to make your characters' words flow. It's set in LA in 1980 and follows part time salesman and detective Kyle as he tries to solve the mysetries of Cape west Apartments, the one time hotel where a murder occurred. Gripping stuff.
