Contact

Subtly guide Terry around the island (and later on, the world!) to help them both.

Contact is a role-playing game with a difference.

The professor from the game is aware of your presence, but his assistant, Terry, is not.

You indirectly control Terry by moving him around the game world and issue commands to him.

Every action that Terry makes has a corresponding statistic, and these can be levelled up by using them frequently.

Run everywhere, and Terry's speed will increase.

Take damage, and while your health will decrease, your stamina will increase, allowing you to take more hits.

Steal items and your thievery skills will increase, and so on.

The game also supports the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

Swap Friend Codes with other people, and when you connect to their game on the Internet, you'll be able to exchange data, as well as send an NPC version of your character into their copy of the game.

Contact for Nintendo DS is currently worth €143.08 loose, €42.57 complete in box, and €80.49 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Contact has only a handful of tracked market sales, suggesting relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo DS titles.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Contact, loose is €143.08 and CIB is €42.57 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Contact is currently worth €143.08 loose, versus €83.32 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
