5 out of 5 stars Well executed   March 8, 2010
Andrew (San Antonio, TX USA)
As the title says, Professor Layton and the Curious Village is a well executed game. You don't really need to go far to see the high ratings that the Professor Layton Series have attained. The game is pretty much a bunch of puzzles all tied in to a charming storyline. A must buy for puzzle and brainteaser lovers. Animation is wonderful and unique, voice acting is outstanding and well fitting. I'd type more but I wouldn't want to spoil the game. Great for adults, too. There are far too many reviews raving about this game, so "buy it" is all the effective advice I can give.


3 out of 5 stars AMAZING but....   March 4, 2010

I absolutely loved this game!!!! I played it as much as I could the first few days. And that was it because it ended soooo fast! I wanted it to keep going. I'm really disappointed that it provided about 8 hours of play. And its not a game you can play again. Borrow it or buy it used because for the money it doesn't provide a lot of hours of enjoyment. But do play it because it is my all time favorite ds game!


4 out of 5 stars Very stimulating   February 14, 2010

I would be leaving for an overseas trip and needed something to occupy my time for 14hrs; A friend of mine recommended this game to me. I am a 29 yr old college grad, who found this game challenging (in a good way). The way in which you play takes a little getting used too, but manageable. The games themselves are very logic based, and can be often be quite tricky. It's a lot of fun though AND makes you think. One thing I didn't like was the talking that the characters do and you can't stop them. And EVERYTHING is a puzzle. If you approach a man en route to somewhere and need directions, for example, you will have to SOLVE A PUZZLE first in order to get that answer. Every character is like this, but I guess that's the way the game goes. Believe it or not, it has helped me a lot in life. There were many times when I was in a jam of some sort, and due to the training of this game, I was able to problem solve much more efficiently that before. This game took me 21 hours to complete, and I highly recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars A great game for anyone!   February 12, 2010

SHORT REVIEW:

This game was great. The presentation was well done using a quaint art style, good voice acting and nice video cutscenes. The game is 9/10ths logic and reading puzzles and 1/10th thinking about the plot and what the story is. Think of this as Brain Age with a cool plot that makes Professor Layton and the Curious Village hard to put down. This will be almost certainly a single-playthrough game, despite having plenty of extra puzzles and some bonus content. I would recommend this game if you have a non-driving role in a long road trip or flight/train ride somewhere.
