Ghostwire to use DSi camera functionality to its fullest

A Different Game has announced Ghostwire for DSi, which promises to use the handheld’s built-in camera functionality to its fullest.

Originally announced as a mobile game, lead designer Anders Bergman says Ghostwire is a perfect fit for DSi because it “allows us to enhance the integrated real-world experience with the combination of camera, microphone and touch screen.”
