OTTF wasn't too difficult.

The only one that really got me was the Chocolate Code one.  That one sucked.

The chocolate code one forced me to use hint coins, which I really didn't do for any of the puzzles, so I agree that one did suck.

I think the OTTF one really threw me off because I read into it too much. The rest of the letters seemed to fit another pattern involving the number of letters between each letter, and due to that I totally overlooked the very basic premise of the puzzle. The few puzzles out there of that nature though sucked.

I also had a tendency to not read the entire instruction set so I would sit there for waaaay too long on some puzzles because I wasn't obeying the rules.

That's EXACTLY what happened to me on the OTTF puzzle - I still think I'm right.

What answer did you come up with?

Well, you see...



The one to the bottom left of the first T is S, which is obviously the preceding letter it in the alphabet. This is the same for the second T, and for the third letter (F), there's an E to the bottom-left of it.

All of these follow the pattern, so following that I got "O" for the blank spot. The hints weren't very helpful either - the final one was like:

As odd as it may seem, all the knowledge you need to solve this puzzle you probably had the day you stepped into first grade.  It's safe to say that it's one of the first things you learned

And one of the first things I learnt was the alphabet, obviously.

Ugh.

That's a case of trying to make a puzzle more complicated than it really is... =)

Wow, I actually did the exact same thing as IceCold at first.  I had completely forgotten about that.  Now I'm all pissed off at that puzzle again.

Yeah the OTTF puzzle was another one.... the chocolate one was too bad for me... noticed the markings pretty quick and even though I could recall all of the keys (my fingers just know where they are, not my brain) I recalled enough to construct the message, maybe I type to much.   

Oh and save the princess 3 is the same as the last puzzle in club house games.

OTTF wasn't bad for me at all. But the chocolate one... there are just so many steps you had to take to get the answer, it drove me crazy.

The Chocolate one through me off because they made it a point to say a cellphone.

If you're going to bump a 2 year old thread at least have a purpose other than the thread necromancy itself.

Anything we can help you with?

P.S.  I've purchased the second game but it's still in the shrink wrap.  :(

Dunno, the bump made me dig the game out, enter the secret door code and stuff. I've now got 130/130 puzzles solved, am missing two secret puzzles (101 and 115) and the final area of Layton's Tasks.

The bump reminded me I need to try this game at some point.

I think I'm going to stick only to the story puzzles because some of the other puzzles require me to take out some paper and a pen/pencil to make calculations, but this game is on a portable system so why should I even do that.
