L the proLogue to Death Note: Rasen no Trap English translation
L the proLogue to DEATH NOTE -螺旋の罠- · L: The Prologue to Death Note - Spiraling Trap
The Anime Game Translations Team's English patch for the third Death Note game on DS, an escape adventure with L guiding you remotely.
What's translated
The whole game is in English. Illidan did the hacking, Phantom and Haribeau translated, Phantom also redid the graphics, and a team of six proofreaders went over the script. The demo of the L Communicator that the game can send to another DS by wireless is translated too, though because of the DS's security checks it only runs on suitable emulators or modified consoles.
Good to know
Names follow English order (given name first), and you should type yours that way. Older saves made with a Japanese name still work, with the name order swapped. A few quirks come from the original game, such as wrong objective pictures for three late traps and flickering text in the end credits.
Playing it
The team offers an online patcher and a setup guide, plus a walkthrough and cheats. Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese game following the instructions on the team's project page; their tools and sources are on GitHub.
