Professor Layton and the Mask of Miracle (レイトン教授と奇跡の仮面, Layton-kyōju to Kiseki no Kamen) is a puzzle video game for the Nintendo DS. It is the fifth game in the Professor Layton series, but the third story chronologically. The game is a prequel to the series, set after Professor Layton and the Specter's Flute, and continues the story of the search for Jean Descole. The game was announced during Nintendo's E3 2010 press conference, as Level-5's representative game for Nintendo 3DS. No further details were given. During Nintendo's September 29 press event, new screenshots and a trailer for "Mask of Miracle" were released, showing that the game has received a visual and gameplay overhaul since its jump to 3DS: the typical hand-drawn 2D sprites have been replaced by 3D models of the characters; the player can now examine areas in a 3D perspective; and some puzzles now take advantage of the 3DS' unique features, such as its motion sensor. Despite its new visual style, the series' iconic animated cutscenes remain intact.The characters can now move while the text boxs are up.
