Three titles on, it's easy to take the "Professor Layton" games for granted, and it's temptingly easy to just recommend them out of hand to anyone who played and enjoyed the first two. If that's you, here's your "Professor Layton and the Unwound Future" review: Get it. It's mostly more of the same — and that's probably all you need to hear.

For the uninitiated, the "Layton" games are collections of genuinely clever riddles — picture rainy day brainteasers more than matching blocks and the usual stuff one associates with puzzle games — packaged inside a charming storyline starring the mystery-solving titular professor and his trusty apprentice Luke. By Nintendo DS standards, the storytelling is surprisingly polished, with hand-drawn animated cutscenes, generous amounts of voice acting and a narrative that ties into the puzzles startlingly well considering how many of them there are (165 and counting in this case) and how unique and meticulously crafted most of them are.
