Set two years after the first Trace Memory, the Wii game stars 16-year-old Ashley Mizuki Robbins, a girl who once thought her parents died at a young age. That turned out to be untrue, as (spoiler alert) she's reunited with her scientist father Richard, although the meeting was more than a little bittersweet. Now Richard's invited Ashley to Juliet Lake, a campground nearby his research lab -- and a place infested with memories of Ashley's mother, who researched human memory before dying in a smash-and-grab when Ashley was young.
Apparently our heroine visited this lake with her mother long ago, and your task is to explore the place and figure out exactly what happened to her mother. Like the original, you'll use a variety of control gimmicks as you go, waving the Wii around like a pointer to examine stuff (Strong Bad-style) and using gadgets like cameras and water-testing kits to solve puzzles. Ashley will also get help from the locals, including forest ranger Dan Maxwell (who you'll be relying on when your backpack gets stolen) and Tommy Harrison, a worker at the lake's guest house whose Norman Bates-like demeanor is obviously hiding something a bit more sinister.
The Trace Memory sequel is coming pretty quick to Japan, where it's due out January 22 on the Wii for 5800 yen, but no US date has been announced yet.

Echt kaum angekündigt, schon stehts im Laden. Naja, sonderlich toll finde ich diese Politik ehrlich gesagt immernoch nicht, freu mich aber dennoch über den baldigen Release des Spiels. Hoffe, er kann qualitativ an den Erstling anknüpfen. Nur bitte mit längerer Spielzeit
