Video Game Reviews of Professor Layton and the Curious Village
Customer Review: Logic and riddle buffs grab this one!!
Summary: 4 Stars
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.
Customer Review: Encourages Logical Thinking...and yet fun!
Summary: 5 Stars
Fun!!! With my background in hard sciences, I always love puzzles and especially those with logical thinking required. An added bonus is that many times these puzzles, once solved, provide great satisfaction. As an adult I really enjoy this game and often cannot put it down much to my husband's impatience at times! As an educator (although in a university setting), I strongly feel that this is a great game for kids AND adults for encouraging critical thinking (at least for some of the puzzles...others you just need common sense). The characters portrayed in the travels of the Professor and his assistant Luke through the Village are fun, strange and give the background story & mystery an enjoyable escape into the video game world.Customer Review: Abosolutely amazing game
Summary: 5 Stars
Before i bought my Nintendo DS, I didn't see any point in buying the console because none of the games sparked my interest, until i picked up my friend's and tried Professor Layton out.. The characters, dialog, and game design are absoutely amazing and convinced me to buy a DS. This is a MUS HAVE if you own a DSCustomer Review: Did not expect it to be this good!!
Summary: 5 Stars
You may think you wont like it, but give it a try. You will be suprised. The whole family wanted to play this game with me :)Customer Review: A ten year old's point of view
Summary: 4 Stars
I rated Professor Layton and the Curious Village 5 stars because it is a fun and challenging game with witty math, word, spacial, and logic puzzles. The puzzle difficulty is random, so be prepared for a hard puzzle in the beginning. This is a great family game because for the harder puzzles you need teamwork. There are 12 mysteries, including 11 sub-plots. Learn everybody's names, so when other people ask you to talk to someone, you will know where they will be. All in all, Professor Layton and the Curious Village is a great family game and I know that you will love it!
