What real reviews say
★★★★★ Love the Professor Layton Series I used to play these games on my Nintendo DS and 2DS as a kid, the storylines are always captivating and long and the puzzles would have me stumped for some time, but they were always fun to complete. The graphics are amazing, I also loved looking around at everything and tapping to find messages or
★★★★★ Just started playing I absolutely love this on mobile. I’m glad I bought the trilogy. The music and voices are so good, and you can adjust the volume. I recommend playing with headphones on. Thank you for this chill game!
★★★★★ Great port! This used to be one of my favorite DS games! It’s much easier now that I’m grown up but just as charming! I found the split screen really well done and the touch screen translated well. The addition of puzzle charms was fun too.
