Welcome to 19th century Paris, a time when the city was replete with the wonders of art, music, writing, fine cuisine and… an archaeological daredevil known as Doctor Lautrec, who is obsessed with tracking down the treasures of the ancients. Join the good doctor as he scours the city for clues, delightfully tackling the Parisian underground sewer system in the process, all in the hope of turning up some cracking booty and getting the better of his colleagues in Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights for Nintendo 3DS!
Lautrec is not the most popular man in the world, and especially not at his university, where he’s regarded as a rather unorthodox character. Luckily for him, his cantankerous nature is offset by the fresh youthfulness of his assistant Sophie, who is keen to aid him in any way possible on their adventure. It all centres around an ancient map, which purports to hold the secret to a mysterious Louis XIV treasure. Before the pair know it, they’re thrown headlong into a wild chase across Paris, and all in breathtaking 3D!
Your job is to steer Lautrec and Sophie through the game, using your very best powers of reasoning and deduction to solve puzzles, decipher clues and discover the ultimate secret that lurks at the root of the mystery. You’ll run across all sorts of kooky characters to question and will need to follow up every hint, with one eye on the prize at all times.
Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights uses the unique features of Nintendo 3DS to bring added depth to your gameplay experience: use the Touch Screen to manipulate puzzles of all types, including logic teasers, riddles and object-related puzzles. Some of the challenges have 3D solutions, only possible with the 3D capabilities of Nintendo 3DS, and you’ll also explore the city of Paris in three dimensions, enjoying some beautifully animated cutscenes along the way.
There’s no end to the obstacles and problems the heirloom-hunting duo will encounter – as well as testing the old grey matter, they’ll need to flex some muscle as they run across rival treasure hunters that include a crime syndicate gang and even other professors from Lautrec’s university! Then there’s the mystery of the title – who on earth are the Forgotten Knights and where do they fit into the story?
There’s only one way to find out - and that’s to roll up your sleuthing sleeves, don your thinking caps and dive into a Parisian adventure like none other in Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights, only on Nintendo 3DS!
- Tackle a wide variety of puzzles to uncover the secret of the map!
- Enjoy cutscenes and explore Paris in 3D!
You can only appreciate the 3D effect of Nintendo 3DS on the system itself. All screenshots and game footage on this site are captured in 2D mode.
