Aimed at what the publisher calls a more "mature audience", NEVES for the DS is a simple tangram game of shape turning, sliding, and flipping.We thought we'd get to assemble overly detailed silhouettes of Pamela Anderson, but in reality NEVES is just designed for the more cognizant mind of the older, discriminating DS player. No bright happy colors and hand-holding tutorials, just over 500 brain-hurting tangram puzzles, all with touch screen control. Atlus USA will be bringing NEVES to North America in November this year.

Whoa! If this is based on the game I used to have with the little plastic shapes called "Tangoes" or something like that, I'm totally getting this.

Awesome link there Konny. There is a mini-game similar to this in Big Brain Academy for the DS ... I think I like that premise better. The difference being, in Big Brain Academy, you are given the outline and just have to tap the pieces that make it up (there are pieces that do not go into the shape at all mixed in).
Good times.
Good times.

Yes and you also don't have to worry about which orientation to flip them.

I'm usually not much into these kinds of DS games, but I'm seriously tempted to buy this, even if just for the childhood nostalgia, heh.

actually seems like a good game i hope its budget price if these puzzles are the only thing about the game.
