Professor Layton and the Curious Village - DS Mooch

Only when everything has been discovered, all mysteries resolved and the ultimate item, the Golden Apple, recovered, will the player have solved the mystery surrounding St. Mystere.

Throughout the game, Professor Layton and Luke will meet the curious townsfolk of St. Mystere who will try and confuse them with riddles and conundrums to hinder their path. Using the Touch Screen to navigate, players must unleash their detective skills to uncover as much information as possible from conversations and the environment around them.

Be warned though, a few characters have hidden agendas of their own and will do everything in their power to prevent you from uncovering the truth. Successfully completing a puzzle will see players rewarded with Picarats Points. Storing them safely in Professor Layton ' s trusty trunk, the player is to unearth as many of these points as possible to keep track of performance.

Puzzles featured are suitable for all ages, however the harder the riddle the more Picarats awarded so always think twice before giving up so easily! If you do get stuck however, help is on hand in the form of a Hint Coin. Using these will unlock one of three possible hints to help you on your way to successfully understand this baffling town. However, these are hidden treasures so be sure to overturn every stone with the stylus to find them! In addition to overcoming the constant puzzles within the main storyline, there are numerous side missions to keep the mind in full throttle.

Completed puzzles may unearth strange items, like parts of machinery, furniture and scraps of paintings, which are used in more mind bending and curious mini-games! Even when the challenge is over and the mysteries unravelled, the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection will keep you gripped as new riddles will be available to download on a weekly basis aiming to bamboozle the most curious of minds!
