An all-new adventure packed with puzzles, mystery and humour introduces Katrielle Layton, daughter of the famous professor, and her canine sidekick Sherl!

Initially released for Android and iOS this July, LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy is now coming to the 3DS this October 6th.

With Professor Layton’s whereabouts unknown, it’s time for his daughter Katrielle to take centre-stage in this new title, which marks the tenth anniversary of the popular mystery-puzzle game series. Determined to prove her worth and hoping that the exposure will help her to uncover clues regarding her missing father’s whereabouts. Whizzing around London on her trusty bicycle, solving case after unlikely case, Katrielle will become embroiled in a quizzical quest that eventually leads to her unwitting discovery of the Millionaires’ Conspiracy. But she’s not alone in her endeavours – a young Gressenheller student by the name of Ernest Greeves joins the agency as her assistant, and the team quickly grows to three when Sherl, a talking dog, becomes Katrielle’s first client and subsequently a trusty sidekick.

The Nintendo 3DS version of the game includes more puzzles than any game in the Layton series thus far, and what’s more, bonus puzzles will be available to download daily for one year, starting from launch day*. With additional minigames to round out the package, puzzle fans will find plenty to keep their brains occupied as they explore the charming and visually rich world of LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy.

Discover the truth for yourself when LAYTON’S MYSTERY JOURNEY: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy comes to Nintendo 3DS family systems on 6th October!

The filenames are mostly shortened English words and numerals.
Scripts are like 00_000010.xs, 00_000020.xs, 01_010101.xs, 01_010110.xs and so on with the first numbers representing the chapter they are used in... I guess. They are also stored in folders named 00, 01 and so on. At least that's how it is in the iOS version (which you can download to your PC after buying it on iTunes and unpack easily with 7zip).

However, in the 3DS version those files are stored within an archive called lt6_jp.fa. Though they stored in one single file, they are not compressed compared to their iOS counterparts. Overwriting the text files is possible, but keep in mind that if you alter the filesize you will need to adjust the table of contents (it stores the position and length of every file in little-endian without any further obfuscations).

Phew boy... This involves parsing of every single file then. Feels like ZX Spectrum reading a tape with game data :-p

Nice to see the series not dead! I remember getting into this right before Diabolical Box. Good times.
Didn't know there was a mobile version; honesty I'd stick with this, it's what the game was made for.
Man I need to go back and finish Last Specter. XD

The series is far from dead by the looks of it. It seems to be getting a TV series in 2018
