SEGA's Nintendo DS launch title is a quirky, highly stylized adventure
that's packed with crazy events. Feel the Magic: XY/XX is exactly the
kind of visionary, high concept title that only Sonic Team and SEGA can
deliver. The game's hero is doing everything he can to score a date
with a sunny beauty. He enlists the help of the Rub Rabbits - a suave
gang of super performers who wear plastic, members-only rabbit ears -
to help him get her attention. Through a series of madcap performances
our hero manages to impress the girl. When he finally takes her out,
the craziness really begins: a rival suddenly appears and a dark cloud
is cast over their love. Will he ever be able to feel the magic of true
love? The game puts the unique hardware of the Nintendo DS to great use,
taking full advantage of both screens and the voice recognition system.
Throughout gameplay, players switch among the stylus, their voice, and
even their breath to control the main character. To win the affection of
the girl, our hero must impress her by performing a series of stunts.
Of course, he needs your help. Our hero is faced with some of the
quirkiest challenges around. When 100 bulls rush toward the girl, you
must tap every one to make sure they fall out of the way. You will
guide him as he tries to ride a unicycle across a catwalk. You'll blow
into the built-in microphone to blow out candles before they start a
fire. And that's only the tip of the Feel the Magic's wacky gameplay
iceberg. If the hip, stylized art and addictive touch-screen gameplay
wasn't enough, you can unlock features for your beauty. Inserting
certain SonicTeam-produced GBA cartridges to unlock costumes and other
cosmetic features. Sonic Advance 3, Chu Chu Rocket and Sonic Battle are
just a few of the games that will unlock these special features.
Release Date: 10/03/2005
