Layton’s Mystery Journey+ for Negative User Reviews

Seems like a good game!!I looove mystery games so I’m excited to play this one, the only reason I did three stars is because I haven’t played it yet. 😏.Version: 1.0.0

“Played” 30 minutes, only got 2 puzzlesI sat through nearly a half hour of boring exposition and dialogue to do two annoying and poorly designed puzzles. This is not the Layton suite you know and love..Version: 1.0.0

Most Puzzles Make No SenseI loved the original games on ds and live puzzle games in general, but the “puzzles” are very poorly explained and the solutions make no sense at all. After my third puzzle of this issue (and after having looked up the solution and STILL have no idea how they got that answer), I gave up..Version: 1.0.0

Don’t download it’s a waste of time.. it’s 90% story line talk 10% game playYou can skip through the movies then there is nothing but talk that you can’t skip just constantly tap to try to make it faster do 1 small task then another movie you can skip than more ridiculous talk you can’t skip.. another small task and another movie and more talk.. get the message 🤣 there is no game play it’s all wasted on story line not worth time of energy it’s just a huge annoyance...Version: 1.0.0

Videos don’t work on iOS 15Just got an iPhone 13 pro max, downloaded the game, and none of the videos work. All I get is audio and a black screen..Version: 1.0.0

As a big fan of the original - poorly doneThis game does not keep the faith of the original game. Half the puzzles don’t make any sense, and to even get to one of them you have to click through half a novel. Even the story feels hollow. The “mysteries” are very boring, like “who stole a piece of film during a movie?”. I have replayed the last Layton games multiple times and I couldn’t even get through half of this one. It really bums me out to have to leave a review like this but I wanted to make sure other people don’t waste their time..Version: 1.0.0

Too much talkingI hate phone games that I have to listen and read so much on. I don’t want an hour long video, I don’t want an audio book. I just want to play.Version: 1.0.0

Stupid writingThis game is frustrating- have to get through a novel of story to finally arrive at a puzzle. Then the puzzles are written to make the answers annoying. How many times do you have to touch a clock to correct the time? Zero because it’s a clock and it will eventually be the right time. More of a dumb dad joke than a puzzle..Version: 1.0.0

Way too much story. DisappointingI’ve bought and played the Layton games in Nintendo before and absolutely loved them. The puzzles were challenging and finding hidden coins and puzzles. I was so excited to see this new game and I can’t bring myself to play anymore. I’ve got to a total of 7 puzzles in over an hour because if the constant story that is not only uninteresting but unnecessary. There’s no way to skip and could be at beat two or three speech bubbles. I just timed me having to constantly two the screen to skip through the chat after puzzle 7 for 6 minutes just to get to the next puzzle. Very very disappointing.Version: 1.0.0

Not compatible with the iPad ProIf you have an iPad Pro, the videos show simply a black screen. The audio plays, and the subtitles are visible, but you don’t get the video..Version: 1.0.0

What in the world is this?So I play, watch some videos, cute.. then I go to 10 plus minutes of dialogue.. after that was done I was like “great! Now the game starts!” Nope.. more dialogue. I lost interest in this game very quickly. I have to agree with others the story isn’t interesting enough to have you waiting 10 minutes to play the next puzzle. The one puzzle I played was pretty fun but then it became a chore..Version: 1.0.0

IntroWhat the dog doin?.Version: 1.0.0

Why are all the cut scenes just black screen and text?I have a 2022 iPad Pro so there should be any issues with displaying the graphics. I see that this was an issue a year ago as well..Version: 1.0.0

Way too much dialogueThis game is overloaded with unnecessary dialogue between the characters. It kind of makes the game boring because the storyline is not interesting at all. More puzzles, less talking is the way it should be..Version: 1.0.0

Puzzles OnlyThere should really be a puzzles only mode. The story isn’t interesting to me at all so I find myself just mindlessly tapping to try to get through the dialogue and find the next puzzle. It’s not like the puzzles have anything to do with the story anyway, so you should really have the option to skip the story if you want to..Version: 1.0.0

SO MUCH DIALOGUEPuzzles are fun and challenging but there is so so much dialogue. And you have to tap through it all. I realize there’s a story but I would much rather be able to skip to the next puzzle or main story line..Version: 1.0.0

Give all the detailsThis game would be a lot more fun if they gave you better details about solving the puzzles. The directions are pretty poor leaving you to guess on what they really want you to do and then losing points when you’re wrong..Version: 1.0.0

Puzzles are fun - WAY too much exposition.The title sums it up. I played for 3 puzzles, but there is an amazingly lengthy amount of exposition/reading between each one. So much that I eventually had to stop playing..Version: 1.0.0

Where’s the gameSo far this game is about 90% clicking through stories and people talking. In 10 minutes of “playing” I’ve done one puzzle which was fun. But still haven’t gotten to another..Version: 1.0.0

Cinematics don’t work!I REALLY want to get into this but the cutscenes just display black. Devs- please get on this..Version: 1.0.0

Make a fast forward versionNo reason to have this much dialogue. If you wanted to write a book, make something for audible. This is supposed to be a puzzle game. Ridiculous.Version: 1.0.0

Too much story not enough puzzlesThe story parts are way too long! I had high hopes for this game but it takes way too long to get from puzzle to puzzle..Version: 1.0.0

Huge disappointmentI liked one of the older games; something on the DS I think. This game has no appeal. There is sooooo much talking; explaining obvious mechanics, cutesy dialog, you name it. It takes several minutes to get to the next puzzle and a lot of them have been reduced to the likes of matching games. I’ve seen a few logic puzzles but they’re few and far between and frankly I have no interest in continuing..Version: 1.0.0

BadThis game is laughably bad. The puzzles are okay, but everything else just makes me want to gouge out my own eyes. Really? The guy’s name is Ernest? He’s really motivated? Literally every name is just a bad pun. The story seems kind of stupid if you ask me. O no big Ben’s hour hand was stolen? Nobody knows what time it is? Ignore the other faces. Doesn’t Big Ben bong the time really loudly every hour? Apparently not I guess..Version: 1.0.0

Way too much dialogueI don’t mind brief instructions but I’ve only played one puzzle in thirty minutes of “play time,” which is really nothing but reading. Reading the same instructions over and over and over. Maybe a little story and dialogue but nothing but reading. So unnecessary to reiterate the same instructions repeatedly. I deleted the game. Too boring.Version: 1.0.0

TediousAfter about ten minutes of boring introductions and instructions, you will finally get to do something that feels like a game. Then you will be faced with drawn out boring dialogue and a clock puzzle that doesn’t make sense. “How many touches to get the clock to show midnight?”. Um, what? Delete..Version: 1.0.0

I cannotThere is so much dialogue. I like puzzles and the art is cute but good lord it is not possible for me to care any less about the story. Plot? I don’t need no stinkin’ plot. Give me puzzles or give this app death (delete from iPhone)..Version: 1.0.0

Too much dialogueIve played a lot of Layton games and I became irritated with this one. There’s just way too much dialogue. I just gave up trying to play the game because it takes too long to get to puzzles..Version: 1.0.0

Lots of dialogue…Didn’t get too far with this game is it had way too much dialogue it was frustrating..Version: 1.0.0

BoringThis game is 90% story and 10% puzzles. The story isn’t even interesting and I couldn’t even make it passed the tutorial it was so agonizing..Version: 1.0.0

Black screenI just got a 5th generation iPad Pro and after the initial Apple Arcade screen, it just shows a black screen. Can’t get past this screen to even try the game..Version: 1.0.0

RageI have never wanted to rage-quit and throw my phone across the room quite as hard as playing the “tutorial” of this game. I had to look up how to do it which is not encouraging when the tutorial should be easy. Then I finally got it and set the game aside. When I came back, it made me do the tutorial again! And I CANNOT get that tutorial completed. It’s so frustrating. The animation is cute and the voice-acting seems good but my goodness, this tutorial is a nightmare..Version: 1.0.0

Not well doneThe opening cut scene was just black with text (on iPhone). I don’t mind the dialogue and story. Even if it was cheesy. However, the clicking mechanism was annoying. Why show the ability to move on the map, then pull up the track screen just so you have to close the track screen? Also, the puzzles have horrible directions. The solution to the ladder one made no sense based upon the directions. Most the puzzles were bad up to that point, so I decided to stop playing. I was really looking forward to this game, as I loved the original..Version: 1.0.0

Cutscenes don't workI've started playing the game and the opening cutscenes won't work. I get the audio and subtitles but all I see is a black screen. Please fix this.Version: 1.0.0
