You know where the spider cave is, right? Yes, you can go south. More than once.

I remember people complaining that Profesor Layton had way too many puzzles. :rollin

Geeze. Not to be rude, but why bother playing a puzzle-driven game if you find challenges to be so frustrating? Why not just pop in a DVD, sit back, and enjoy an unfolding narrative without expending any effort whatsoever? No walkthrough required.

I have a better idea! Since you guys spent the last 8 years making this game, why not do a walkthrough for it and post both at the same time? That way those that choose, can have a walkthrough and those that don't, can play it all on their own.

Seriously, if the game's too hard, just find the turtles and they'll fix everything. :lol

Really dumb! Made the fly spell and can't use it because game won't let me turn into a fly in the tavern or go through the keyhole to the place. I'm really starting to hate this game!

I was going to suggest asking "What would Jesus do?". But you can't actually walk out into the desert in this game. :lol

I'm done! They need to make a walkthrough or SOMEBODY does! I can't take the stupid puzzles anymore! Uninstall and delete! I don't like garbage being on my computer! >: 8 Years and THIS is the crap everyone gets?! What a waste!

geez, I can't believe you've actually played the previous versions and have no idea what to do and even ask for little things.
If you did played those, you have already figured most of the things need to be done.

And yes, the 15 minutes quota as meant for keeping the tense especially for those who already beaten the original many times. Not that I like it, but it does makes things really interesting. I do suggest there's an option to set the difficulty lower though since it's kinda obvious this guy panicked because the short time quota he has to deal with.

In the original game and IA's version, you can use the fly wings on the essence and fly through the keyhole to spy on the bandits, but NOT this version! Stupid! Oh and there is no library in the other 2 as well! Because in the other 2, you don't need some stupid book to get into the lab! Again, really stupid!

That I finally figured out, with some of the help on these posts. Now I'm at a point where the wizard wants food and I have none. So I sat next to him and he punished me. I think I have all the ingredients to make the cat spell. Thats what I am going to do next.

I don't understand. wouldn't you run out of food after 3 journeys/naps?

(btw, I think this game is absolutely perfect.)

OHHH...

No. I gave the mutton to the eagle, and got its feather. Also gave wizard the fruit and bread. Where is the cactus? I've search all over the desert and it won't let me cut any of them. So where is it, in the library or some other stupid place that it shouldn't be?

Ahh. apparently I never went back into the kitchen after looting it.


edit again:

wait what?


does the meat renew? I gave that to Manannan, and later thought that I had dead-ended myself with the eagle so started over...

Nope. it's in the desert, just use the knife on all of them on each screen until you find it.

No, but one of the other three food items does. Also, there's no dead ends in this game. You can satisfy the eagle even without the mutton chop.
