Did Layton's excellent art remind anybody else of this?
Great effing movie.

User error!Bebpo said:Man the number recognition in this thing sucks ass.
Most of the numbers were fine, but I was doing the downloaded puzzle and I needed to write a 5 and it took me FOREVER to get it to detect a 5. I ended up drawing a 1 with the top->left line extending out and it would call that a 5. :\
Aliens have spotted a strange implement that humans are using and this is how they describe it: "It makes a hole in paper. And at the same time, it draws a line surrounding the hole to show you where it is. What a strange tool..." What is the tool the aliens saw?rareside said:Finally got to a point where I'm stuck. Can anyone help me with puzzle 45? Holes, aliens? WTF? I don't need a hint to the puzzle, but a basic translation of what it's asking for would be appreciated.... this is where an extra DS with my kanji dictionary running would help me..
Kobun Heat said:You have to do it with the right stroke order/count/direction. Remember, the Japanese learn numbers with the same rigid uniformity that they do kanji.
Bebpo said:Got a link for the stroke count on writing a 5? I wanna see how the heck they do it.
this is the same question I wanna make, art style seem to me much better then others level 5 games, it's really in-house at level 5 or it's inspired from an already existing design (maybe from that books ?) ?pilonv1 said:The art style for this is cool, is it original or based off something else?

I dont know how people can do a 5 in a different way
it'll look like shit if I did it that way ^^;Pureauthor said:Um, a single line without lifting the pen from the paper, starting at the head?

Bebpo said:I like your last drawing on the right :lol
But yeah, great game! not-so-great recognition softwareI think you really have to have a Japanese mindset and think like a Japanese person would when writing anything....for gaijin.
Ah, but they all have to be the same letter, not different ones.rareside said:Has anyone accidentally gotten the correct answers in the game, for the wrong reasons? Just played again for a few hours, and it happened on multiple occasions that on the first guess I got the right answer, but for a different reason.
Kobun Heat said:Ah, but they all have to be the same letter, not different ones.
Oh, I see what you're saying. I misunderstood at first.rareside said:True, the math didn't add up for my reasoning, but sometimes in this game the math doesn't necessarily need to be perfect (in the traditional sense) to be a right answer.
Jonnyram said:120 during the story. 15 additional ones outside the game. + a new download every week.

With Professor Layton and the Mysterious Village just released in Japan, Level-5 has wasted no time in announcing the second part of the planned trilogy, Professor Layton and the Devil's Box.
With a more sinister title than the first game, the follow-up has a somewhat darker storyline, including a bit of horror. The box in the title is a mysterious container, inside which is a note that warns the opener of their certain death, presumably at the hands of the devil who the box supposedly belongs to. Layton and Luke discover a dead body early on in their journey; could it be a victim of the box?
Like in the previous game, Professor Layton teams up with his ever-helpful assistant Luke. The perceptive pair find themselves on a train known as "The Morentory Express" in pursuit of the box. The train is full of cabins accommodating a cast of suspicious people, not unlike a popular murder mystery flick from the '70s.
With the new scenery comes a cast of new characters, starting with Professor Andrew Schroeder. Schroeder is an old friend of Layton's, and it is a letter from him that leads to Layton getting involved in this episode. Other important members of the cast are a bulky serviceman, a suspicious fellow wearing sunglasses, and an impudent man whose face reveals a certain degree of evil intent.
Like Mysterious Village, Professor Layton and the Devil's Box features a huge selection of puzzles created by Akira Tago, Japan's famous puzzlemeister. From a library of more than 2,000 puzzles, Level-5's Akihiro Hino selected more than 130 for inclusion in Mysterious Village, and a similar number can be expected in this installment. The menu on the opening screen allows for access to a "secret file" via passwords provided in both this game and Mysterious Village, so there looks to be a firm connection between the episodes.
With the game's system closely following the first one, development could be quite far along at this point, but we don't have any concrete release date just yet. Surely the final part of the trilogy won't be too far behind this one too, as well.
