The Good
- Puzzles, puzzles, and more puzzles (nearly 170 in total, plus minigames besides)
- lovely art and animation
- pitch-perfect voice acting (when present)
- simplified case focus makes for more accessible mobile gaming.
The Bad
- Too many duds in the puzzle pile, particularly word problems relying on trickery
- repetitive scenery, characters, and music get tiresome
- simplified case focus makes story entirely forgettable.
Our Verdict
Decent
A qualified success; the positive aspects still outnumber the negative, but the weaknesses noticeably hinder the experience.
Offering the same abundance of barely-integrated gameplay as its predecessors but with new protagonists and smaller cases, the gorgeous LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY is ideal for puzzle fans on the go, though at times it sacrifices quality for quantity.
