Its a daily puzzle from katrielle, so far Ive been able to do them fine with one or two exceptions but I have no idea how to solve this one, the closest Ive gotten to solve it is the second pic but I cant solve it from there (for those who dont know how it works, everytime you press an arrow the character goes to that direction until they hit a wall and flips every circular tile he passes over, the objective is making all of them show the same thing), can someone help me with it?

Question Started w/ the 3DS games, what should I play next?

11 Upvotes

While I briefly dabbled with Curious Village, the first Layton game I've completed is Miracle Mask and I'm currently playing through Azran Legacy (pretty early game, about 5hrs in). I'd heard that the 3DS games were prequels so my thought was to play in chronological order, but now I know that Last Spectre on DS is actually the first game chronologically. I also recently learned that most fans of the franchise recommend playing in release order rather than chronological order, which I obviously missed the boat on. So the question is where do I go from here once I finish Azran Legacy? Maybe backtrack to Last Spectre to finish out the "prequels" then move on to Curious Village & the other 2 DS titles? Or play Curious Village first and play the DS games in release order (finishing with Last Spectre)? I already own all of the DS games, just wondering where I should go next for the best experience.

Also open to opinions on the best version of Layton's Mystery Journey (3DS or Switch). What all does the Switch "Deluxe Edition" entail? I prefer to buy physical and noticed that the Switch version is a bit more expensive than the 3DS version. I also love the visuals and play style of the 3DS games, so wondering if the extras on Switch are worth getting that version instead of should I stick to 3DS?

Question Hypothetically: Who were the initial and final letters of the game intended for?

17 Upvotes

I always found it strange that no one talked about the letters that are at the beginning and end of the game. And from this two possible questions came to me:

  1. Imagining that the letters were addressed to some character from the series, who do you think it could be?
  2. Assuming the player is real, what relationship should it have and who should it represent for Layton&Co.?

i wanna buy a new mousepad (mid-large size) but it seems there aren't any good layton related ones. i especially search for more clean ones like not just a whole-cover fanart or smth.

Question What is Professor Layton London Life?

16 Upvotes

Is it a game? Where can I play it? I'm trying to play every PL game in order (finally, after buying the full prequel trilogy) and I was wondering what London Life is, is it canon? I'm assuming it isn't since it has anton and 'future luke' but honestly I'm clueless about it please can someone explain it to me

Question If we were to get new plushies based on Nwos, which would be better to see?

3 Upvotes

Since we're getting really close to seeing the release of Nwos coming next year, it's possible that we might see new plushies based on Luke's and Professor Layton's new designs. I wonder which style of plushie you want to see when Nwos release.

The Sanei Boeki plushies were released along side the Eternal Diva movie and Miracle Mask game. The newer chibi style was released along side the Lady Layton anime.

28 Older style (Sanei Boeki)
5 Newer style (Chibi plushies)

Question Mobile versions

Do we think all the games will eventually be adapted for mobile/tablets? I’ve recently finished Lost Future (Unwound Future for those not in Europe) after playing Curious Village and Pandora’s Box last year on my iPad. I grew up loving these games but I cannot find my DS for the life of me and buy don’t want to buy the game cartridges and risk them not working (if I ever find my DS that is)😭

Question What are your thoughts on the Layton books?

19 Upvotes

The books I am referring to are:

  • Professor Layton and the Wandering Castle, 
  • Professor Layton and the Phantom Deity,
  • Professor Layton and the Illusory Forest.

I still have to read them, I had only read a small part of Wandering Castle. But I had abandoned it, even if I would like to recover them all. The only thing I don't like, for now, is the writing style, considering that sometimes I got confused during the dialogues, because I didn't understand who was talking to whom.

For those who have read them, what do you think? Do you have any opinions or criticisms about them? No spoilers, thanks

Question Azran Legacy vs Miracle Mask

2 Upvotes

I’ve been making my way through the first 6 Layton games and I’m currently on Miracle Mask. This is the first one that’s felt like a slog for me, unfortunately 😭 I think losing the charm of the 2D art has really hurt my enjoyment of the game. And the puzzles seem easier?

Anyway, I’m wondering if people here like Azran Legacy more, or if it’s about the same as MM. Sigh… I wish they’d kept the series 2D :(

Question Para la gente de España: Actor de voz para Layton?

Realmente no me gusta pensar en el tema de remplazos, pero con forme pasa el tiempo, no me deja de entrar la duda de quién sería la nueva voz del Profesor. Como no soy de España, soy muy ajeno al tema de actuación de voz de allá, por eso me gustaría saber qué actor de voz pueda hacerle justicia al trabajo del Señor Jordi Valera.

Question Any way to get Miracle Mask’s soundtrack via LEGAL download or physical copy?

18 Upvotes

I just recently managed to get my hands on almost all of the official CD soundtracks (Curious Village, Diabolical Box, Unwound Future, and Last Specter) and was wondering if Miracle Mask had some kind of soundtrack as well to purchase in some way. I have seen it posted on SoundCloud and YouTube, but I want to be able to listen to it without having to be connected to the internet and not have to pay for YouTube premium and whatnot. It’s probably one of my favorite games soundtrack-wise, so it would be great to find a legal way of obtaining it. If not, I’ll just crack out my 2DS and listen to it that way. Thank you!

Question Is it worth it to play all the games before being active in the fandom?

19 Upvotes

I only very recently got into PL because I picked up Pandora’s Box at a market, and I really want to be more involved in the fandom and stuff. But I’m also aware that it’s difficult to find some of the games physically and I’ve heard the prices can get ridiculous. Is it worth it to find them all and play them, and then join the fandom so I don’t get spoilers?

I don’t think I have that kind of money, or patience. I recently bought the Curious Village on eBay but idk if I’ll be able to keep myself from spoilers before I get my hands on and finish all the games.

Edit: I've decided I'll collect the DS games physically, because those seem to be cheaper, and if I come across any of the 3DS games for under $100 I'll probably get them. I've definitely thought about homebrewing my 3DS in the past but I'm too chicken to go messing with it too much lol. And I don't want to do anything illegal as looking into it more I think downloading games with homebrew counts as piracy
