Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box (video game)

Customer Review

Did the game now for three days and am almost finished; So have solved all 138 puzzles from the main game and am now on the last 15 of the Bonus section. I am very happy that the developers have not gone to a lot of new ground, but have rather been a really solid sequel. The voice acting is time German; Unfortunately, therefore adapted the English no longer on the module - to me now is missing some of the British accent of Layton and Luke.
The quality of German is so high that you can also get over the loose.

Is really awesome that very few remember of the 153 puzzles to the predecessor - here are really a lot of new ideas in there. While there is still the sliding puzzle and of course some mathematical tasks; otherwise most of it is however unknown. Especially the chess puzzles make this time a lot more fun: Instead of placing women so that they can not beat, you have this time with a jumper the entire board jump - sounds much easier and especially less interesting than it is. Particularly well the new memo is in each riddle: It is now a kind of milky film set on each puzzle and doodle on it at will, which can be very useful very often.

The three collecting puzzles are different this time failed quality: The best is the assembly of a camera, which can then be used to take pictures of special places. Since the camera is a bit mysterious, it brings in each image but always three errors, which must then be sought - after waiting at one of the error locations then a particularly difficult puzzle. Pretty average and far too easy is too fat hamster, the hatch must wegtrainieren the fat by placing him tracks from apples, light bulbs etc. in his enclosure and the hamster running long distances. Somewhere between annoying and quite nice I would classify the cheeky Berlin dialect of the hamster - but really suitable for British game theme he is not.

Completely failed, the object to the tea service: Here Layton have to cook the right tea impoverished pawns always. But as the residents get randomly fancy tea and the possibilities are far too many, this task is only to despair.
The story is again better than the first part in my eyes; One should just not resent frequent logic errors. Thanks to many cutscenes, many famous people from the first part and great new characters to get here again their money's worth.
This secret doors with the games overarching codes are also quite nice, but nothing really stunning - have since hoped for more; but anyone can find out for yourself times.
