Described as “mystery novels you can wander through”, the two Another Code games are back on Nintendo Switch with some brand new elements.

The protagonist is Ashley, a teenage girl who is trying to find her parents. To do so, she needs to unravel the truth locked in her lost memories, and tackle various mysteries in unknown places.

Here’s the synopsis for both games:

In order find out the truth behind that mysterious letter, Ashley heads to Blood Edward Island, where her father is supposedly waiting for her. There, she finds a huge mansion filled with mysteries and strange contraptions. She also meets D, a boy who has lost his memory…

Another Code: R – A Journey to Lost Memories

The story takes place two years after the events of Another Code. Ashley has grown up, and is now a 16-year old high school student. While visiting Lake Juliet and its breahtaking nature, she remembers visiting that same place with her mother, Sayoko, when she was a child.

During her visit, she meets a young runaway called Matthew. That encounters then leads her to uncover the truth behind an incident that happened in Lake Juliet several years ago.
