Professor Layton and the Unwound Future

Layton returns, complete with hat.

The final game in the Professor Layton series follows the familiar formula we have seen in the past. The introductory video and scripts were a little longer, with a few more characters. I played up to the fourth puzzle and found only small differences to the first two games. The mystery this time is a time travelling machine, at the same time it was invented, several scientists started to disappeared. Layton and Luke are present at the unveiling of the time machine, where the town mayor is asked to assist. Things go wrong though and the machine explodes, and the investigation begins.

Electronic Entertainment Expo 2010:

The tutorials at the beginning are extensive and assume you have never played the game before, so there would be no problem playing this game before the others. Within the puzzles, the memo mode has changed to include colours and a choice of line thickness for the pen.

It's a difficult game to play on the show floor, even though Nintendo provided noise-cancelling headphones so that Luke and Layton's voices could be experienced in all their glory.
