This game is so much fun. The puzzles are all so different and at different skill levels. It is hard to put it down.

After reading about the hype for the sequel to this game, and consulting with some of my close friends who had played this one, I decided to give it a shot and hope for the best. And boy was I suprised. The variety of puzzles, in terms of difficulty and type, made this game really engaging. And for the collectors, you can go even further and earn yourself a pat in the back for getting all the puzzles in the game.
The story is engaging and well presented. I love the voice acting, and the animated sequences are well done. The variety of puzzle types kept me on my feet, naturally beign great at some and dismal in others. But don't fret! If you're having a little too much difficulty with a puzzle you can use the "Hint Coins" you discover while exploring the town of St. Mystere. This tended to yield the path to the solution, and the hints only failed me twice to provide a train of thought to the puzzle.
These hiccups were with the harder puzzles you can unlock by collecting all of the standard game's puzzles. I'm still about 10 short of finishing off the whole game, but will probably be getting the sequel as well. I believe it's appropriate for younger kids, as there is no questionable material other than some (possibly) scary moments, but Professor Layton is the perfect hero for this mystery solving game.

I bought this for my 11 year old and the only reason she picked 3 stars is that she thought some of the puzzles were 'wicked hard'...Everyone's different and I suspect I will love it when I take the time to give myself a few little mental challenges
Love this game. October 2, 2009

I just finished this game last night and it is going to be hard to wait for Christmas to get the sequel! The puzzles are challenging but not too hard, the hints are helpful when you get impatient lol. I was impressed with the complexity of the game's story, I was expecting a bunch of puzzles smashed together in a half baked game play but the game is quite the contrary. As the story plays out the puzzles become more challenging and it is rather fun to go off and explore the village and find all the extra puzzles on your own. Even after you complete the story there are bonus puzzles you can earn by continuing to search the village or solving the puzzles again and earn more points. I loved this game!
