2025 is set to be a big year for the Professor Layton series with Professor Layton and the New World of Steam still on track to hit Switch in the coming months. Likely in a way to cross-promote that upcoming game with the “Layton Collection” available on its website, Fangamer has announced a brand new jigsaw puzzle based on the series. A rather massive 1000-piece puzzle, the artwork selected is chosen from one of the beautiful cutscenes of the series where Luke and Layton are discussing their next adventure on the train.
Finally, a Puzzle that reminds you of This
Available now in our official Professor Layton collection: www.fangamer.com/collections/…

While my old brain is failing me in figuring out which adventure this is from (I think it is Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box), it’s a fitting image that sums up the Layton series well. Not only are you solving a puzzle by placing pieces together, but you also get a rendition of the Ghibli-styled cutscenes in massive form. I was always blown away by how good the cutscenes were in those games, especially for being on the DS. I would love to have some art like that on my wall.
The puzzle will run you $26 and is available in both the US and EU. There is also some artwork from Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, aka the greatest game ever made, and a pin set of Luke and Layton. Those go for $19 and $14 respectively.
