TOKYO (MacHouse) – Making an iOS game is definitely not easy especially if you have to do everything by yourself. We introduced our last software title one month ago. Finally… We submitted a new software release to App Store about an hour ago. It’s an iOS game for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. This game is called Lost in Apartment.

In this game, your task is to return lost items to rightful owners. There are 36 tenants in this apartment complex. By knocking on the door, you can talk to a tenant. But they won’t give you a clue as to what item they’ve lost until you let them talk. Every tenant has a personal story to tell. Some of them are exchange students from overseas. One or two of them are unemployed. If you let them talk, they will eventually ask a question. Only if you answer their question, they will tell you what they have lost. Many questions are quite specific and tough to answer. You must be versatile at different subjects such as world history, economics, classical music, world geography, cooking, art history.
