Boric: Breakfast of Champions!

So I completed Professor Layton on schedule Saturday morning. It took about 12 hours (and 3 battery recharges) to complete all 135 puzzles and the story. I found the game quite enjoyable and am already looking forward to the sequel. Definitely worth a pickup in my opinion if you're a fan of logic puzzles and the like.

This entry is mostly a giant response to Nabokov's review of Hot Shots Golf Open Tee. He obviously didn't like the game and that's fine. But I want to throw my opinions out here as well. And also suggest things that might possibly help him enjoy the game more.
