Playing A Game Exit DS NDS

I grabbed it on sale from Amazon for $10, and I'm starting to think I wasted my money.

The concept is fun enough: a puzzle game where you, as an escape artist ("Mr. Esc"), rescue helpless people from life-threatening disaster situations. You have to navigate areas like fire-filled rooms and flooded boats, and help the survivors get to the exit. Jump over obstacles, move crates, use items.

Unfortunately, the controls are terrible. I'm not even sure how to describe it. It's never been so hard to go up stairs. Atari 2600 games were easier to play than this. My god.
