Professor Layton and The Curious Village is coming to iOS in the west
Level-5's superb Professor Layton series is heading to iOS in the west, starting (sensibly enough) with The Curious Village.
Professor Layton and the Curious Village - which has been available on iOS and Android since June in Japan - originally released in 2007 on Nintendo DS and marked the debut of puzzle-solving gentleman Layton and his plucky sidekick Luke. Its compelling mix of brain teasers and rollicking, wonderfully presented adventure was popular enough to spawn two sequels, three prequels, a movie, a TV series, novels, a manga, a fantastic Phoenix Wright crossover, and two spin-off games.
To date, two Professor Layton games have been released on mobile in the west - the modern-day spin-off Layton Brothers: Mystery Room and series reboot Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy - but The Curious Village will be the first mainline series entry to make it to iOS outside of Japan.
