This and Disney's Guilty Party make it seem like they really get it. Guilty Party has the potential to be the next Just Dance-style breakout hit, and that game plus Epic Mickey are on the extremely short list of 3rd party games that i think could actually sell Wiis, because they do something different than what Nintendo already provides, but along the same thought processes as Nintendo

 

Monster Hunter Tri could possibly be on that list too, depending on how Nintendo markets it.

How do you figure?

The great mystery board games and social games (eg. werewolves) require players to access info secretly. With the Wii, all info is available publicly because it's on the TV screen. Which leads me to believe the game is limited to co-operatively or competitively figuring out the mysteries together. So essentially it's a dynamic adventure game, with multi-player but without the sort of play mechanics that make for a truly great group mystery game. I can see that working out well, but I can't see it being a break out hit like Just Dance.

What am I missing on this one?



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
