Solve it like a Layton!

Solving mysteries runs in the family! With Professor Layton’s whereabouts unknown, it’s time for his daughter Katrielle to take centre stage in LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY™: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy for Nintendo 3DS family systems!

CI_3DS_LaytonsMysteryJourneyKatrielleAndTheMillionairesConspiracy_Locations_Characters.jpg

The story this time begins with Katrielle setting up the Layton Detective Agency on Chancer Lane, determined to prove her worth and hoping that the exposure will help her to uncover clues regarding her missing father’s whereabouts. Whizzing around London on her trusty bicycle, solving case after unlikely case, Katrielle will become embroiled in a quizzical quest that eventually leads to her unwitting discovery of the Millionaires’ Conspiracy.

Detective work

However, she’s not alone in her endeavours – a young Gressenheller student by the name of Ernest Greeves joins the agency as her assistant, and the team quickly grows to three when Sherl, a talking dog, becomes Katrielle’s first client and subsequently a trusty sidekick.

I think I've got it!

Gather up clues as you answer conundrums and pin down the logic in seemingly illogical situations. The more puzzles you solve, the closer to cracking each case you’ll come – but you can always revisit an old case to seek out anything extra you might have missed!

Use the Touch Screen to explore your surroundings, speak to characters and discover puzzles, plus hidden Hint Coins that can help out when you’re a pinch. Other special coins hidden in the scenery unlock all sorts of new outfits, so you can give Katrielle dazzling new looks as she cracks cases. Better yet, each outfit comes with one special puzzle!

LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY™: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy includes more puzzles than any game in the Layton series thus far, and what’s more, bonus puzzles will be available to download daily for one year, starting from launch day*.

Peruse some puzzling examples

A break from the case

Puzzles aren’t the only things that London has to offer, though. Uncover collectibles as you explore, or pop back to the Layton Detective Agency office between cases and redecorate it as you like, changing walls, rugs, tables and more. In the Layton Museum, exchange museum points – earned by completing daily puzzles – for memorabilia and build up a fine archive of objects from Katrielle’s famous father’s previous adventures.

When you need a brain break, try your hand at a trio of additional minigames: devise delicious dinners for picky diners, rearrange a shop to sell loads of stock, or lead Sherl out of the pound in as few moves as possible. You can also dip into Case Codas to see side stories that run parallel to your main adventure.

With the most puzzles ever included in a Layton game, a colourful cast of new characters, a hatful of humorous dialogue and an intriguing new storyline, it’s time to say hello to a new heroine and a new era for the Layton series! Will Katrielle and her friends ever be able to find her missing father?

The Layton Detective Agency: "Any Mystery Solved"

It all happens on London's famous Chancer Lane, where Katrielle establishes the Layton Detective Agency – a private eye that says yes to anything that may concern its patrons. From missing pet ponderations to murder mysteries, Katrielle will undertake any investigation. Her remarkable and fantastical deductions quickly earn her a reputation which makes the young sleuth's services highly sought after.

Crack the case

Though motivated initially by the desire to track down her missing father, Professor Hershel Layton, Katrielle soon finds herself embroiled in a cacophony of cases across England's capital. As a result, the hunt for the AWOL archaeology prof is pushed to the back of the queue.

The beginning of the journey

The Layton Detective Agency opens its doors to the public...and what member of the public should walk through those doors first, but a talking dog?! This canine is a conundrum to himself, and the agency motto of "Any Mystery Solved" is a bone too juicy to be put down.

decoration_middle.gif

And who is this dog?

So the amnesia-afflicted Sherl calls on Katrielle's services to uncover his past and discover his true identity. It's the first of many a mystery our young heroine will help to solve.

Sherl is on paw to help crack each case with some decidedly doggy insight. So, what mind-bending mysteries await our detective duo?

The puzzling adventure ahead is filled with characters who will help and hinder you as you unwind crimes, demystify mysteries and solve strange situations. Meet some of them below!

Katrielle Layton

The daughter of Professor Hershel Layton, Katrielle is the heroine of the new Layton series. While spirited, she is also a gentlewomanly chip off the old block. And when it comes to solving crimes, she seems to have a knack of arriving at the truth in spite of positively paltry evidence.

decoration_middle.gif
CI_3DS_LaytonsMysteryJourneyKatrielleAndTheMillionairesConspiracy_Sherl_Smaller.jpg

Sherl

Katrielle's conversational – and coincidental – canine companion. The name derives from that of a famous detective, although it's perhaps not completely appropriate for a male dog... Katrielle is one of a handful of people able to talk normally with Sherl, and he frequently offers insight and advice during cases – in addition to not-always-welcome caustic commentary.

CI_3DS_LaytonsMysteryJourneyKatrielleAndTheMillionairesConspiracy_Characters_Emiliana.jpg

Emiliana Perfetti

Emiliana is Scotland Yard's number one case analyst and criminal profiler. She regards Katrielle with scorn, and considers her a rival, if not a worthy one.

CI_3DS_LaytonsMysteryJourneyKatrielleAndTheMillionairesConspiracy_Characters_Ernest.jpg

Ernest Greeves

A young man who requests to become – or rather, insists on becoming – Katrielle's faithful assistant. He ends up paying the price, however, as Katrielle has him running all sorts of errands for her. In fact, he's more of a dogsbody than Sherl.

decoration_bottom.gif

You can't turn a corner in London without finding a puzzle – and this time there are more puzzles than any other Layton series game so far!

Katrielle and her trusty sidekicks will have their work cut out to bust every brainteaser and explain each problem. That's not even counting bonus puzzles, which will be available to download* daily for one year, too.

See what kind of puzzles you can expect below!

Happy Families

There are seven people in my family, with five children including me. The second eldest boy is four years younger than me. The second eldest girl, who I get along with really well, is three years younger than the eldest girl. The eldest boy is four years younger than the eldest girl, and three years older than the youngest boy. We all have the same parents. If the second eldest girl is nineteen years old, how old am I?

A Matter of Time

An old clockmaker needs help setting the time on these three clocks. The clocks each say different times. One says 4:05, one says 2:18, and the other says 3:05. One of the clocks is 32 minutes fast, another is 28 minutes slow, and one of them is completely stopped. Set them all to the correct time.

Hankie Stamp

Here we have five handkerchiefs. They are all the exact same shape, colour and size. Using a round stamp, you need to mark the handkerchiefs so that they can all be told apart. What is the fewest number of times you need to use the stamp?
