New Puzzle games

This week sees the release of another puzzle game on the Nintendo DS: Professor Layton and the Curious Village. The game has a strong pedigree, as it was developed by Level 5, the studio behind Dark Cloud, Rogue Galaxy, and Jeanne d'Arc. Professor Layton, a man known for his puzzle-solving abilities, and his assistant, Luke, are called out to the village of St. Mystere to decipher a confusingly written will and search for something called the "Golden Apple."

To progress through the game, players need to enlist the assistance of the villagers. Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as just asking people for help, as they insist that you solve puzzles for them before they'll render assistance to the duo. Professor Layton and the Curious Village comes out in Australia on April 10.
