New tidbits, screens from Undercover: Dual Motives

It wasn't enough for Sproing to bring spy intrigue to the point-and-click adventure renaissance on the DS with Undercover: Dual Motives. No, they had to come up with some interesting new ways to employ the many tools of the DS in order to create some insane new minigames. Not that we're complaining. We're just blown away by the news that one of the games puzzles will have us all puffing away at the DS mic. At one point, our spy heroes are required to draw the attention of a deaf professor working inside a sinister research facility. Do you simply walk over? Oh no, silly. Obviously, you blow paper darts at him. And how will you accomplish this feat? By aiming with the stylus and blowing into the microphone. Wonder if laughing hysterically will count ... because that sounds like such pure fun that we're certain the first few tries are gonna be a bust. We can't wait to see what other zany undertakings Undercover: Dual Motives will have to offer.

After the cut, we've included two shiny new screenshots.

6. I'm glad that the DS is getting a comparatively large number of point-and-click adventure games. It's a great genre that seems to have been on the downturn lately. Hope the Wii can get some similar stuff going!
