El33tonline Review: Professor Layton and the Curious Village (NDS)

El33tonline writes:

"Professor Layton is a man who loves to solve puzzles. In fact, it's what he lives for. Not useful real-life puzzles like "who kidnapped my cat?" or "where is my missing shoe?" but rather abstract mathematics and logic puzzles like "how many triangles are in this picture?" It strikes me as a skill that's singularly useless in the world other than if you want to qualify as a puzzle-nerd, but somehow in the world of Professor Layton and the Curious Village this is considered the most quintessential skill anyone could have, and Layton is the highly respected master of puzzle-solving, and thus a most respected individual. Think Sherlock Holmes, but instead of solving murders and mysteries he solves matchstick puzzles." (Nintendo DS, Professor Layton and the Curious Village) 4/5
