Introduction


The Professor Layton and the Curious Village Walkthrough is a comprehensive step by step fully illustrated guide including the steps needed to learn useful information, follow the story and to find all the puzzles and hidden hint coins

The walkthrough includes puzzles for both the US and UK versions and you can also see what's hiding behind The Hidden Door

Where a UK puzzle has a different name than the US version (but is the same puzzle), only the US name appears in the index

Solutions to all the US and UK Weekly Puzzles are also provided


Pre-Order Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box

The US sequel can be pre-ordered for an August 24 release while the UK sequel can be pre-ordered for September 25 ... see the Amazon DS Games sections below or the Links to the right

This game will be extremely popular and it's possible that those not pre-ordering will face shortages and delays (as happened in the UK with the Curious Village release)

US players may also like to check out the upcoming murder mystery Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders and the puzzle solving Scribblenauts (links in the Amazon US section below)
