A fastantic entry in the Layton series. Telling the compelling tale when Luke and Layton first formed the iconic duo along with Emmy, all accompanied by a tremendous variety of challenging puzzles to scratch our head around. Having played the mobile versions of the previous trilogy, I thought it would feel rough around the edges playing on an emulator. However, this was not the case. The tactile controls are as intuitive as ever, and the only part where it ever felt uncomfortable were the cutscenes that had to be watched on a little screen. All in all, it is a game packed with details that shows how much level-5 has learned from the earlier entries. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I greatly recommend it.
