This is not "my cup of tea" game, but because of great reviews and players opinions I gave it a chance and I didn't regret it! Diabolical Box has OK story and well known protagonists which are trying to solve mysterious story behind object mentioned above, but they need our help. The game has excellent cut-scenes, very nice animation, interesting voice acting and vivid presentation. There are different kind of puzzles which are collected in professors bag, so you can solve it right now or later. Puzzles are not too much difficult, most of the time they are interesting, but with games progress they become tedious... Also, sometimes, in case of drawings, when you are about to find some tiny detail, which is just too hard to find - DS screens are too small to look at. Diabolical Box has very good balance between adventure and logical games and offers interesting plot, hours of fun and researching - puzzle solving. Professor Laytons second game is one of the biggest surprises for me, especially in therms of gameplay - to play this game you`ll need patience and lots of stylus clicking. Go for it! :) M
