    Whilst not performing any great new feats, The Miracle Mask is a solid first 3DS addition to the Layton franchise.

    A sweet, good-natured puzzler that continues the series' traditions with some great new elements, too. [Jan 2013, p.69]

    The Layton series' formulaic approach to gameplay is a double-edged sword – it's still engaging and fun, but at the same time, the premise has begun to show some weathering. Still, the mix of point-and-click adventure and logic puzzles is something that few other games can offer, and Miracle Mask still does it well. For anyone who is deeply invested in the Layton series and jumps at any chance to experience a new Layton game, Miracle Mask is not a game to be missed.
