SOMETHING COOL #26

In my personal opinion, too many video games have become too formulaic.  So when there's a series of games that has a genuinely fresh formula, it's pretty refreshing.

In this case, I'm referring to the Professor Layton series of games for the Nintendo DS.  Remember all those brainteasers you'd read in puzzle books as a kid (or maybe that was just me)?  Professor Layton tackles them and puzzles much like them.  Like many things, it's better than it sounds.

The clever gameplay is backed up by fun stories and animation.  If you like a challenge, I recommend you check them out.
