handheld

This week was a little different then normal. I had a trip planned to go to yellowstone with my in-laws so I wasn't able to spend a lot of time playing video games. None actually, due to the amount of time i spent working on homework so that I would be caught up when i got home. So in the car on the way to yellowstone i pulled out my DS and instead of playing Zelda phantom hourglass like i was planning i put in professor layton and the curious village which i started over a year ago and had yet to finish. And 7 and a half hours later I finished it. Professor Layton is a fabulous game. Layton is hired by lady Dahlia who is the late wife of Baron Reinhold. He is hired to solve the mystery of the golden apple because the baron said that whoever solves the mystery would inherit his fortune. Its a great game with plenty of twists for those seeking a great story. The part of the game which i enjoyed most is the gameplay. Its set up as a point and click game and how you progress is solving puzzles for the citizens of the town. Its a wonderful idea that I feel is executed very well. Hopefully I'll be able to finish phantom hourglass now though..

  1. Professor Layton is a great game, I especially liked how there was an overall story line that the game followed, but also how intuitive and constantly engaged I was with the vastness of mini-games both relaxed and aggravating.

    Look for Layton 2 at gamestop.
