turned me into both a nerd and a gamer
Its twists are a little more absurd and 100% is the literal worst requiring RNG even with a guide that you would have no clue of even knowing without a guide and it doesn't even make sense after knowing the plot revelations why is the tea minigame so baaaad. Also if you're a hintcoin person you are locked out if you miss some at the halfway point lol.
But it's still Layton and I'll take that with a tip of the hat.

the key mystery reveals in this game are more ridiculous than the first.
this is also the beginning of my frustration with how flora gets treated in the original trilogy (i haven't played the second trilogy yet). first they try to ditch her in london, then she just got left in a barn and nobody seemed all that concerned? layton, you're her legal guardian - can you at least pretend to care?

Layton and luke do hallucinogens for most the game
This has a way better setting than the first one, and a better soundtrack too. Especially liked Folsense.
But well, it's Layton. Simple and fun. The trunk minigames are more accessible this time which makes for a tighter experience, but with some hiccups still (oh tea set, what you could have been...) On puzzle quality, I can't really say? Felt somewhat the same.
Enjoyable. Feels very :) although it kinda burned me out a bit.

The best bit is the cutscene at the end where Layton nearly loses his hat
Esto me recuerda a un puzzle...
first game to make me cry
Damn, this is a great Layton game. The plot is the best I've seen so far and I liked it a lot more than Curious Village. The music is great, the environments are vast and very colorful, and man, the story. Whew. It has a pretty good runtime too and the puzzles are fun, although I found myself going to a guide more often for this game. It's great though!!!
Of course a Layton game was going to use that twist eventually, but hey, love those puzzles! Let me stack more pancakes.

The story of this game is where I really got lost. It's pretty good, but the reveals at the end are a bit too far fetched for me. The puzzles were good though, and the graphics and music were too. It's still worth a play, despite it's flaws.
Así es: puzles
Much prefer the style and integration of puzzles in this game and onward where they actually complement the narrative instead of seaming like a roadblock sometimes in the previous game. That being said I can't say I enjoyed the story this time around and out of the original trilogy, this one is my least favorite overall. Pacing is way too slow with story beats that just feel like padding and the twist just feels a bit too obtuse, even for Layton standards. Still worth a playthrough for the puzzles alone tho.
Marquant .. mon préféré de la saga

If you have played the first game in the series, the second is more of the same with slight improvements. The puzzles feel more connected to the story this time around, but the mini-games are uninteresting, and the story is too nonsensical at times.
Yes
My favourite
Probably my least favourite mainline Layton game. Didn't really enjoy the pacing, but it's still really good. Good puzzles and nice story as always, more memorable than the one from the first game for sure.
We’re still on the Benjamin train, desperately grabbing for the emergency brake.
Arguably the best Layton. Just let the plot wash over you and have a good time with the puzzles.
IDK how to feel, part of me knows this game is better then the first game. But there are a few issues I have with the game, the first bulk of the game was paced greatly however come to chapter 5 pacing goes to a snails pace, and some puzzles were pretty bad, however I cant blame them with 153 puzzles. That being said the story was MUCH better then the first and it made me pretty emotional with the ending, Which doesnt really happen with games for me. Overall I would say it is better then the first game.
i think this is the weakest of the DS trilogy but it might be because it was also one of the last of the layton games i played and i hyped it up in my head too much before playing
This game made me cry at 12 and 24 and if that isn't a win I don't know what is

The retro game store made a mistake that forced me to wait like 30 minutes. As an apology, they gave me this game for free. It had the box and the manual intact. Just like the first game, this game is very charming and the puzzles are fun. Exploring Folsense while alone in my room at night is such a vibe.

To be honest, I don't really think much of the Diabolical Box. It's a structurally sound game, but other than that one really cool swordfight at the end nothing really stands out about it to me personally. It's fun, but didn't leave much of a lasting impression.
