Nintendo Download: Trek to Freedom and a New Frontier

The Nintendo Download goes hiking in this week’s Download with The Trail. It’s a slow week overall, with really no standout titles.

It’s the trail

The Trail is a hiking game. Yes, that’s really it. You hike. The fact that it’s the headlining game this week in the Nintendo Download should really tell you something too. Namely, that there ain’t much in this one.

Not to worry though, there is most definitely a NEO GEO game. It’s actually one of the better releases this week too.

• The Trail: Frontier Challenge – Join pioneers from across land and sea in an epic journey across an undiscovered country. Walk down the single-track path of destiny at a calm and measured pace. Get out there and make your mark upon the world, adventurer! Every person you meet on The Trail is another player who will trade with you at campfires located along the way.
• TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom – TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom is a platform puzzle game that introduces Bebo, Deephi, Slimmie, Smarts, Willis and Sparky the Turtle. Master the gameplay with multi-character control and turtle-linking, environment manipulation and item deployment and match-three mechanics that make challenges even more fresh, intense and fun. TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom launches March 9.
