Players step into the shoes of FBI agent Jonathan "J" Weaver as he attempts to solve a 19-year-old murder mystery in Again, an interactive crime novel from the developer of Hotel Dusk: Room 215. Set in early-'90s New Jersey, Again finds gamers collecting clues, solving puzzles, and holding their DS vertically to make use of Weaver's special "Past Vision" ability, which allows him to look at current and past crime scenes in a sort of "spot the difference" mini-game mechanic. Scenes are portrayed by real actors in full-motion video clips, helping to provide drama as players attempt to solve the infamous Providence Murders.
