The sound design in this just tickles my brain so much it's amazing. The little pop when you interact with something, even some of the "typing" sounds when people speak, the little coin jingle, I swear it hits a sweet spot

Yet another JRPG where most of its conflicts originally arose due to people bizarrely not talking to each other about important stuff.
I spent the last portion of the game internally screaming "WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST SAY SOMETHING TO THEM FFS". I feel like my patience for this weak sort of narrative has really gone down over the years ರ╭╮ರ

I swear, puzzles are somehow tied into the economy of the Layton world. I met one character who wanted to exchange a puzzle for a train ticket. And there are other instances where puzzles seem to be perfectly viable payment for services rendered. This is a really bizarre world.

Also it's super super annoying that the spot your differences has one picture that is LARGER than the other! So it often looks like you spotted a difference, but actually part of the photo is just cropped out!

I like spot the differences puzzles, but the fact you have to do it three times in a row while waiting for the whole loading animation is super obnoxious. Why can't the game just let you select all three spots in one go?

Definitely enjoying the general aesthetic game better than Curious Village so far.

I've never played a Professor Layton game before... but I am having a ton of fun with this one! The puzzles are challenging, the story is fun, and the atmosphere is just delightful. Really a great game to play with a cup of hot cocoa after a long day at work!
