Flips: Artemis Fowl

About

Flips: Artemis Fowl turns the popular fantasy series into an interactive ebook experience for Nintendo DS. Players navigate story segments using the touch screen flipping through scenes and making choices that influence how the narrative unfolds. The game includes voice acting character bios and bonus material that expands on the books while maintaining the fast paced tone of the original novels. The game stands out for its tactile interface letting users physically swipe to turn pages and select options. Though not a traditional game it offers over 100 minutes of story content with multiple endings based on player decisions. Fans of the Artemis Fowl books might appreciate the supplemental artwork and trivia but should expect a reading heavy format rather than action oriented gameplay.
