4/5 ★ – ThumbsMckenzie's review of Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

The story and the mystery surrounding Hotel Dusk and the characters are all really good. The game gets a bit bogged down though with the DS controls feeling a bit dated for some of the puzzles involved, and the game being a bit meandering and not always specific about what you need to be doing. Often there were times where I didn't really have a clear next step and found myself just walking around the hotel trying to find something to get triggered. Luckily, the hotel isn't huge, though as the areas expand it can get a bit tedious with the constant going around and trying to make something happen. A guide online can easily alleviate this though. Besides that, Hotel Dusk is a good mystery if visual novels are your thing.
