Simple and charming, I like that it's the only one that justifies why people give you random puzzles

There's a certain charm to this game for sure, but it sometimes feels a bit too much like doing your homework. I didn't find the story too engaging either.

Cute, sporadically fun, but has a bad habit of just throwing obnoxious math homework at me.

Lovely bundle of puzzles, most of them nice and bite sized which goes well with being a handheld. There are a couple of stinkers that just left me quite frustrated, but that's maybe 1% of the puzzles in the whole game.

A bit of trivia for your hint coin: the sliding block puzzles in the game are based on 箱入り娘, or hakoiri musume, daughter in a box puzzles, originally called Klotski puzzles in Poland.

Un très bon professeur layton, le 1er donc un peu moins abouti que ceux qui vont suivre, mais une belle introduction à l'univers et au principe du jeu, juste pk flora ? Vrmt reste dans ton village on s'en fou de toi au moins Emily elle est utile , toi t juste chiante en faite.

A great first attempt at combining small thinkpieces with intriguing video game mechanics. While it sometimes fails to accomplish what it's set out to do, complicating a game that would otherwise be accessible to people unfamiliar with mathematic.
