In a recent development it has come to our attention that the game “Professor Layton and the Curious Village” is possibly in the process of being ported to iOS. Professor Layton and the Curious Village was originally a Nintendo DS game released back in 2007. The game was developed by Level 5 and published by Nintendo worldwide. This was the first title in what would come to be known as a two-part series, the second part being “Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box”. We believe that Professor Layton and the Curious Village iOS is currently being worked on for iOS because of a tweet that the App Store Twitter account posted recently.
Our attention to this news was brought to us by a recent tweet that was posted on App Store’s official Twitter handle. Following is the tweet with a brief playable video albeit with no sound.
