Lost in Blue

 

Ever wonder what it would be like to get stranded on a deserted island?  Well, put down the coconut walkie-talkies, monkey-powered elevators, and eight course banana-oriented gourmet meals, Gilligan, because Konami has a cold, hard dose of reality for you, bub…at least in a handheld gaming sort of way, with Lost in Blue, a new RPG headed to the Nintendo DS.

As one would suspect, the game follows a teenaged boy who gets himself stranded on an island, and must now do his best to survive.  In time, he discovers that he is not alone when he meets a 17 year-old girl who also got washed ashore.  Now as tempting as it is to assume that this will lead to some hot, hot luvin’ straight out of Blue Lagoon, that shan’t be the case 

here, as the two must work together to get enough food, and shelter to survive, so forget about the game providing some suspiciously convenient opportunities for the two to huddle to stay warm.

 

Among the things players will have to do is hunt for food, cook it up, and make sure they have adequate shelter to survive.  There will be plenty of opportunity to play as either of the characters, as they will both provide unique takes on trying to survive on this island.  There will also be plenty of time to explore the island, and see what sorts of mysteries there are to unravel during the two’s unplanned stay there.

At this point, Lost in Blue is slated for a Fall 2005 release.  With such a different take on the RPG genre, it will be interesting to see how gamers embrace the title when it finally does come out.
