Play Zorro - Quest For Justice Online

Zorro: Quest for Justice came out for the Nintendo DS in 2009, published by 505 Games. It was one of those action-adventure titles that tried to make good use of the touchscreen, arriving late in the handheld's life when developers were still experimenting with how to integrate the stylus. The game puts you in the mask and cape of the classic hero, set against the familiar backdrop of Spanish California, with a story focused on rescuing the oppressed and uncovering a conspiracy.

You control Zorro directly, moving through side-scrolling environments, fighting guards, and exploring areas screen by screen. The main goal involves freeing townsfolk, defeating bosses, and progressing through the narrative by completing missions. Signature mechanics include using the stylus to slash your sword in combat, drawing specific patterns to execute attacks, and utilizing the whip to disarm enemies or swing across gaps. The pacing is fairly straightforward, with moderate difficulty that spikes during certain enemy encounters or platforming sections. It feels responsive when the touch controls work well, giving a tangible sense of performing Zorro's flashy techniques.
