What 10 Ghibli films would be like as games
What would the game be like? Sherlock Hound took its inspiration from the work of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but under Ghibli mastermind Miyazakis direction, adventure, whimsy, and intrigue were just as important as collecting clues to solve puzzling crimes. That ethos, along with the European setting, sounds a lot like the Professor Layton series, a franchise created by Level-5 (just like Ni no Kuni), and that makes them the perfect team to translate Hound into a game.

As it turns out, nine of these are owned by the studio's co-founders Shruti Ghosh and Ian Maude. Nine! What a huge and busy family that must be. They're not just any dogs, however, but stray Indian breeds that they have rescued, fostered and then adopted. … [Read more...] about Devs and doggos: how Nodding Head made Raji while saving stray Indian dogs
