I remember not being great at this game. Compared to the other Layton games I always struggled on this one, but when I decided to come back to it…that was what added to its charm.

The story picks itself back up from curious village, Layton and his apprentice Luke are back on the case to this time crack the mystery of the Elysian box. The journey takes them on a great train ride to many places but the one that sticks out is definitely folsense. The story does almost kind of copy curious village but there’s a difference, it’s almost as if the game wants you to know the town isn’t real and hints at it heavily. Unlike in curious village where it’s hidden as much as possible, but I like how they do that. And need I say more about anton’s story? I won’t spoil it but let’s just say even if it was short, it didn’t stop me from crying.

Overall, it seems like the games really started to boost themselves up at this point and I loved every minute of it.

Puzzles are heavily challenging but likeable, Story is a major highlight, Sammy
