A student sits alone on a park swing, memorizing some notes
and tunes for the big music test tomorrow. When sitting on a
swing amidst the confines of a city park, one doesn't expect
to be transported to another world but slip happens. A
dimensional warp gets triggered and jingle boy dives between
time and space to land on another world where 50 god beings
reside. To return home, the gods or their stone totems, must
be consulted, interacted with, and sated with a special
offering or deed. Travel the island in search of denizens and
objects which can help fulfill your destiny.
The creators of the Playstation game Moon
designed the world and characters in Endnesia, and it shows.
Whimsical creatures, quaint designs, and an interesting sense
of humor indulge the player with a well rendered fantasy
island in which an ether of magic flows. The player has 10
days to accomplish his appointed tasks and return home,
marshalling the help of new friends to garner clues and
technique. A forgiving game system allows for a puzzle
sequence or task to be repeated or attempted again if the
player fails at it the first time around.

David Goldman, intrepid newspaper photographer extraordinaire,
goes on assignment in Japan to capture wild and wacky events
on film. Under seemingly normal circumstances, which can
quickly get out of hand, David clicks and snaps opportune and
interesting shots which will please his chief editor and
ensure his continued employment at the Times. David's
aspiration since childhood has been the snaring of a Pulitzer
and the Japanese assignment dovetails neatly with his dream.
The first level plants our maniacally grinning friend on a
Japanese street where citizens coalesce and dawdle. The people
eventually start hamming it up, ignite incidents, and
essentially open themselves up for blooper-magnitude photo
ops. A limited amount of film requires a game plan of paucity
when taking photos, limiting yourself to only the money shots.
Later levels find David in a forest filled with spirits, a
sports arena, a zoo, and a shopping center, among others. The
game touts support of the Popegg camera once it's released and
players may take a photo of themselves and paste their face on
in-game characters if so inclined.
