Professor Layton and the Mysterious Box - beat the main game. This game is pretty much like the first game, but a new crazy story and new puzzles. It's slightly better than the first because of some improvements to the note-taking system in puzzles, but otherwise it's about the same quality. And yeah, it's good. The crazyness of the stories in this series is kind of overdone, though... I think they might be better with less insane plots, honestly. [spoiler]"Everyone in the last town is a ghost and you only saw them because of the crazy gas coming up from the mine"? WHAT? Oh come on, that's completely stupid...[/spiler] Also there's too much "save the girl" stuff is central to both games' plots, and it's unfortunate. In this game you think that the girl you saved in the first game is going to join you, but... no, it's just for a little bit in the middle of the game, then she's gone for the rest of it again. Ah well. But otherwise, it's a good game and I liked it. The puzzles definitely get tricky, and tough puzzles are certainly the main attraction of Layton games.
