Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box, or Professor Layton and Pandora's Box (in Europe), is the second game in the Professor Layton series by Level-5. It was followed by a third game, Professor Layton and The Last Time Travel which so far has only been released in Japan. The game follows Professor Layton and Luke traveling cross country by train to solve the mystery behind a strange box that is said to kill anyone who opens it.

Puzzles include brain teasers, sliding puzzles, logic puzzles and others. The player is presented with the puzzle and the value of the puzzle in "picarats", and is given unlimited time to solve it. Each puzzle has three hints available for it, but the player must spend one "hint coin" to see each hint. Hint coins are limited; the player starts with ten. (Continue reading...)

I was actively hoping for a Prof. Layton the whole convention. I'm glad I ran into these guys on the last day.

Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box Trailer 

My favorite part of this trailer is at 1:26 when Luke is tugging at the real Inspector Chelmey's face...I can't wait to play through that scene!! When I first saw the sword scene I thought WOAH hold up, Layton can sword fight!? But now I think about it, it's quite fitting since he is the ULTIMATE English gentleman!

Professor Layton: Diabolical Box? - YE or NAY

First game was too easy, so is this one worth it? 

My friend played the first game and was somewhat disappointed by the puzzles. She says the story is fine, for the most part but she was able to predict a lot of the plot twists so that kinda took the fun out of it. For her, the only puzzles that were really challenging were the bonuses.... So is this game any better?

Save your money.

Agent 14 says:

If you didn't enjoy the first game, this one is exactly the same, so you will be disappointed. I thought the first game was harder, but that might just be me. Then again, I'm only up to the part where the train enters the tunnel so maybe someone who's played further can answer better.

Puzzles that have defeated you  

Not that you didn't solve it (cause they give you the answers), but puzzles where the question was clear, you knew what you needed to find, but you got it wrong. The horses with different speeds puzzle just defeated me.

Professor Layton needs your help! 

What I like about the Layton games is that you never feel so stuck as to want to bang your head against a wall. Most of the puzzles are skippable - you only have to solve a certain number of them to progress through the story, so if any are giving you a hard time you can just pass. I can finally see what all of the fuss is about - the Professor Layton games are truly what the DS was made for!

What lies ahead could be dangerous....omg! a puzzle with pancakes!!! It's nice to see a company make a worthy gaming sequel for once. (as apposed to some games where they slap on some "new guns and better graphics" and it's dared to be called a sequel. >:(

I imported Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box for the DS and it finally arrived today - Soon enough I was already addicted and all other games and hobbies are taking a back seat while I work my puzzle solving mojo!! It's amazing how I want to just kick back and solve puzzles for fun rather than for coursework.
