AtomAdventures of Cookie and Cream coming to a DS near you
Agetec took a gamble and released From Software’s Kuri Kuri Mix on the Playstation 2 under the name the Adventures of Cookie and Cream. It was a two player co-op puzzle game where you shared the same controller to progress through levels. As a party game it was creative, but never really caught on. From Software announced that they are wrapping up work on Kuri Kuri DS Otasuke Island, a sequel to the PS2 game, scheduled for release on March 29, 2007 in Japan. Kuri Kuri DS Otasuke Island has a similar two player, one device cooperative play set up. One player uses the buttons and the other player uses the touch screen. As a co-op game Kuri Kuri DS might have some potential, but one tiny DS Lite between two people might feel cramped.

I hope they bring this to the states! I was one of the five who bought the PS2 version here. I guess if it ends up staying in Japan, it should still be import friendly. PS2 game is pretty easy to figure out without the help of that annoying chicken.

monkeypox - I think From Software wants to have two people using one system, that’s what makes the game creative. There might be LAN features in it too.
Louise - I played a lot of the PS2 game too, so like you I’m betting it’s going to be import friendly. I’ll probably pick this up when March rolls around.

When I first sat down and played Adventures of Cookie and Cream for the PS2 with a friend, I couldn’t help but think this game belonged on the GC. In fact, if there ever was to be a sequel to the original, I hoped it would appear on either a Nintendo console or handheld. Lo and behold, it ends up on the DS.
If From Software are able to pull off a great cooperative play on the lines of the PS2 original using only one DS (especially on Lite) that will be an accomplishment in and of itself. I’ll definitely have to pick this up to see how well they succeed.
And hell, this should make another innovative game to play with a friend.

this would be a great game over a lan connection, using 2 systems instead of 1. I’d imagine wi-fi would be too slow to work effectively
