Professor Layton And The Curious Village is the brilliant first game in the innovative Professor Layton series. This franchise tells the tales of the renowned puzzle master Professor Layton and his young self-appointed apprentice Luke, as they tackle many mysterious that would daunt even the best of detectives. In this game, the Professor and Luke are hunting down treasure using clues left behind in a wealthy man's will.
Our story begins with Professor Layton and Luke being asked to investigate and explore the mysterious town of St. Mystere. This village is renowned for its strange inhabitants and the secrets that enshroud it. A wealthy baron who lived in the village has recently passed away, leaving only a will behind that contains clues as to the whereabouts of his hidden treasure... and so our puzzle journey begins.
This game boasts over 130 brand new and riveting puzzles designed to challenge even the sharpest of minds, with the puzzles gradually increasing in difficulty as you progress throughout the game. These puzzles are designed to test your number skills, spatial awareness, and more, even throwing in tricky riddles to really get your brain cogs in motion. Each beautifully drawn and animated environment you find yourself in will need to be investigated thoroughly in order to find these puzzles, with movement initiated by tapping the “shoe” icon with your stylus. In fact, the whole game is controlled by you tapping the touch screen of the Nintendo DS with your stylus.
With each puzzle you discover, there will be three hints available to you to help you solve it, or at least point you in the right direction should you find it just a tad too difficult. If you want to solve the puzzle without any help, the game also provides a “memo” pad on the touch screen where you can keep your notes. When you solve the challenge, simply tap, tick, or write your answer to the puzzle using the stylus as your pen. You can also speak to all of the colourful characters you will meet along the way of this gripping storyline in order to make allies, and make sure you leave nothing un-investigated so you can find every clue you need to solve this challenging and diverse mystery. If you do complete the game from the inside out and have broadband internet connection, you can connect your Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi systems to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, and get instant access to bonus downloadable puzzles, meaning you'll never be short of a brainteaser or two.

Curious
Thought I'd treat myself to this game as I like to do puzzles. There's a great storyline to it and the puzzles are nice little brainteasers ranging from easy to hard. Very thought provoking. Can't wait to get the next instalment.

Brilliant
I bought both of the professor Layton games for my 11 year old son for Christmas. I asked him what he thought and he said "brilliant". He loved the puzzles and said some were difficult. As far as im concearned he was spoilt rotten and received loads of toys this year, but every time i looked up he had his head stuck to his ds playing these two. The only negative is I havent had a chance to have a go yet as he is always on it lol.
