A DS title based off the Trick drama series was revealed via the drama's website a few weeks back, but it's only today that we're getting an official announcement from the game's publisher.

And that publisher is... Konami. The title of the game is Trick DS Version: Kakushi Kami no Sumu Yakata (roughly "The Mansion In Which the Hidden God Lives").

You take control of physics professor Jiro Ueda and magician Naoko Yamada, respectively the hero and heroine of the drama, in an original story that's being supervised by the drama's staff. You'll have to gather "evidence cards" in order to solve the various mysterious that you encounter.

Trick's developer is Work Jam, studio behind the Detective Saburo Jinguji series.

A release is set for May 13 at ¥5,250. The newly opened official site has... a big egg.

Darn, I was hoping this game would use real people like that Koshonin game from a while back. No particular reason why, really.

Also, while I've never seen this show, I may need to watch it, because it reminds me of Apollo Justice...if he was physics professor instead of a lawyer.

Work Jam has experience in the detective/mystery genre through the Detective Saburo Jinguji series, so this will hopefully be more than just a cheap licensed title.
