Professor Layton - Which is better?

[smasher2256]

I was thinking of buying the new Professor Layton game and I was wondering (from people who have played them) if I should play the first one before going to the second one, or if I can just go straight to the second one. Does playing The Curious Village add anything to the gameplay or storyline of Pandora's Box?

Only an understanding of the characters.
You can play the second game first, but you might as well play them in order.

Neither is better than the other. They are both amazing. Buy both and play them in order!! :D

^^^ What Don Said. Both are absolute DS Must owns.

I almost kick myself when I think about how long I hesitated to get the first one, with how fondly I think of it now. Puzzle game with a story line...who would of thought. =)

You won't really be missing anything by playing the first game first so it's up to you. That being said, you'll be given a code in teh second game for use in the first one; it unlocks the "secret door" of the first game. I would tell you whats in there, but its a secret. :X
