    One of the finest debuts of a new IP in some time and does an incredible job of combining two areas the DS seems to have been made for: puzzles and adventure gaming. The addictive gameplay, twisting story, charming characters and beautifully drawn animation makes this a game that neither puzzle fans, nor adventure game fans should miss.

    Professor Layton, like many of those other titles, has a level of polish and confidence that simply draws you in. It's diverting in every way a video game should be. If you own a DS, you owe it to yourself to grab this title.

    As a $30 puzzle magazine, Professor Layton leaves quite a bit to be desired.

    Great!!! I'm really sad that the weekly downloads have finished. Monday won't be the same. Can't wait for next release.
