OK, so basically it looks like there are 15 sets of costumes that come with 15 extra puzzles, and each can be bought individually or in 2 bundles. Buying both bundles + the $16 price of the app apparently ends up being the cost of the 3DS version of the game ($40). Yeah, it's a little crazy for iOS, but it's fair. It's very, very fair giving us the exact same game with no compromises and considering us as equals. zeroex Well-Known Member May 20, 2014 344 25 28 #5 zeroex, Jul 20, 2017 I've never played these games. Can I get some reviews or can someone explain why they're so highly acclaimed? Thanks! L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,404 418 83 #6 L.Lawliet, Jul 20, 2017 I've never played a Layton game before and I want to buy this but I would love to hear impressions from others (probably after they get more time to play). I just hope there's enough content there and the replayability level. Or is it one of those games you just finish and sell it off? metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #7 metalcasket, Jul 20, 2017 The Layton games (not the spin-off on iOS) all have about 15-17 hours of content (this is without completing them to 100%) and this is the largest one of them all so far. You shouldn't be concerned about content. pjft Well-Known Member Feb 15, 2011 1,082 8 38 #8 pjft, Jul 20, 2017 Woke up. Opened the app store. Searched. Bought. Fantastic games. The interweave puzzles and the story in a very charming way, great animation, a great package. Having bought all of the previous ones at full price, this is a steal.

But it will still take quite a bit - I'm under the impression all previous ones for me were 20+ hour affairs.

Great someone made the leap to do this for iOS games and hope this opens the door for more.

L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,404 418 83 #12 L.Lawliet, Jul 20, 2017 Ahh you do have a way with words. I think I will get it. It's so hard to resist... Damn you high quality premium games. And this is supposed to be the exact same version as the about to be released console version. Yeah you're right. I just don't have a lot of money now so I have to control how much I can purchase. I think I will probably get this. I love my high quality Japanese games. I just went for broke on that Steam summer sale (RIP me). I just wish the puzzles would change their answers with each playthrough, that would be cool. I noticed they added a daily puzzle element on the description which sounds like something you'd put in for a game with some replayability. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #13 metalcasket, Jul 20, 2017 Last edited: Jul 20, 2017 Shame this kind of mindset isn't more common when it comes to iOS games. I have no doubt it's only a matter of time before someone comes into this thread and posts "WHY THE HELL DID THEY HAVE TO INCLUDE IN-APP PURCHASES IN THIS VERSION OF THE GAME!?!? I'M GOING TO BUY THE 3DS VERSION INSTEAD BECAUSE AFTER A DECADE AND A HALF OF NOT PLAYING THIS GAME, I'M GOING TO WANT TO PLAY IT WHEN IT'S PULLED, AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE CONTENT BEHIND THE IAPS!!!" Haha, yeah...just a half an hour ago I was like "Lol, $16 + IAPs? NOPE!" but then once I found out what they were, I couldn't resist. Especially since this is a full-fledged Layton game and not like Layton Brothers. PLUS...PORTRAIT GAMING, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! sugimulm Well-Known Member Aug 28, 2010 2,457 46 48 The last time zone for iOS game releases :( #14 sugimulm, Jul 20, 2017 I remember I had one of the versions on 3DS, didn't quite gel with me, but I was in my action game phase, lol. It was highly polished and quite well made, again, in my action n game phase. I love that it's pure premium and will definitely buy! JCman7 Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2009 2,548 3 36 Mechanical Engineering NY #15 JCman7, Jul 20, 2017 Layton games are fantastic looking forward to this. Though I will miss Professor Layton and Luke, maybe they will make an appearance at some point.

DerDree Active Member Jun 12, 2014 28 0 0 #18 DerDree, Jul 20, 2017 Is there cloud sync / saves? Would really like to play this game on a larger screen at home but also on the go on my mobile phone. L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,404 418 83 #19 L.Lawliet, Jul 20, 2017 I'm cleaning out my device right now to get ready for this. I do wish they let you download your preferred voice option. I play in English but I like original voice cast (for here Japanese). I also saw the VA list and saw some actresses I really liked.
