NAMCO BANDAI Games America today announced that its newest Nintendo DS game, QuickSpot, has shipped to retail outlets across North America and will be available in stores beginning this week. QuickSpot challenges players to spot the differences between two seemingly identical pictures using the Nintendo DS touch screen.

QuickSpot contains three single player modes; the main mode being Rapid Play, which has five levels each containing 10 stages and a boss challenge at the end of each level. Players will be awarded medals for points they achieve based on their “Brain Activity” which test their Intuition, Concentration, Recognition, Stability, and Judgment. The higher the players score in each area the more points they earn. Other single player modes include Focus Play, which contains 140 unique pictures with 10 differences for the player to spot in each picture, and Today’s Fortune, which gives players their Health, Study, Romance, and Money fortune for the day. QuickSpot also includes three multiplayer modes including Time Bomb, which allows two to up to eight players to pass one Nintendo DS back and forth between turns, Scramble Mode, and Download Play in which players can compete against each other on multiple Nintendo DS systems.

QuickSpot is rated “E10+” for Everyone by the ESRB and has a suggested retail price of $19.99. Learn more about the game by visiting www.namcobandaigames.com .
