Unlike the original first few PC games from the series, you do not see your full character nor control it on the screen, but rather play it in first-person much like visual novel type of games.

You can use you PDA to check the info about the victims as well as clues you have found during your investigation.

PDA is also used to open map where you can see the locations you can travel to.

The available locations are only available until you are done with all the clues on them and new locations constantly appear as you find new clues and leads.

Exploring the location works in a way of hidden objects game where you can see the listed objects you have to find.

Once gathered, you will have to use objects in solving puzzles or further gathering new clues and leads in your hunt for the killer.

Occasionally you will talk to other characters, mostly your colleagues like your boss, your partner or a crime lab staff.

Dialogues don't present any choices and just forward the story or give you new clues.

When interrogating a suspect, you will be able to present him gathered clues to get his confession, but you will have to find all the clues before you can even start interrogation.

Your boss, as we as internal affairs will pick a bone with Nicole, just to see how the case is progressing.

Such check-ups will require you to answer up to five case-related questions with multiple answers where more than one answer can be correct.

Failing to answer correctly will not end the game or anything, but will not earn you bonus score points.

Score points are gathered from pretty much any action you do, from gathering objects in hidden-objects mode, finding secret files revealing more about the nature of serial killers, using objects in the game, successfully answering question and completing mini-games.

There are many different types

About Nintendo DS

The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.

Gamevaro tracks Crime Lab: Body of Evidence for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Crime Lab: Body of Evidence to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2010.
