5 out of 5 stars Spectacular game!   September 1, 2008
Truly an amazing game. It has a great storyline and there are so many mysteries to uncover. The puzzles get challenging during the middle and the end of the game, so dont use the hint coins in the begining. This is the best puzzle game yet, and I cant wait for the sequal to Curious Village, Professor Layton and Pandora's Box.


4 out of 5 stars it all went too fast   August 27, 2008
I loved this game, counldn't put it down. Unfortunately that made it go too fast--I've solved every puzzle in the game and almost all from downloads. Only one download a week just isn't enough, so now I'm bored with it, but when it was new--ahhhh, it was heaven!


5 out of 5 stars puzzles on a different level   August 25, 2008
Nice game, brings puzzle solving to a different level. thoughtful, and not a struggle. It is a little hard for my 8 yr old, but he likes to try. together, we can get most of them. better alternative than car racing and shooting the bad guy.

All but one of the puzzles were solvable to me. I read the solution for the candy text one online and I still think that one is a stretch. Overall this is a fantastic game.


4 out of 5 stars Logic and riddle buffs grab this one!!   August 19, 2008
After seeing the sign in GameStop's window for a while, I asked my bro to get this for my birthday. Didn't think it would be as engaging as it was!! 120 puzzles to find (I still need to find 5 more, even though I've beat the game) and the only problem is that it isn't long enough! It's about a 10 hour game, but it leaves the ending opened for a sequel, which I hope will come soon!!! Some of the puzzles (mostly logic puzzles) are really hard. Some are just tricky wording. But the story is very in-depth, great little cut-scenes and characters. Not terribly predictable, though I figured out some things early on, you do get hit with a curveball or two.

Worth the money if you like to think a little when you play your videogames. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 14 or so, unless they are very logical and good at riddles.
