    Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth

    You all might be thinking "Why would a game about Doctor Who be educational?" Well, the answer to that is it's full of PUZZLES!!!!!!! The puzzles that Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth include jigsaw puzzles (either a piece of a machine or trying to fit objects into a container), lock picking (mostly done by Amy Pond), mazes, finding objects for other characters in the story, picking out which picture is the odd one out and many more. The story is that the 11th Doctor and Amy Pond arrive at a spaceship that's still on Earth and is about to take-off because the Sun is soon going to explode and roast the Earth. It turns out that one of the human's who are part of building the spaceship found the TARDIS and built it into the ship, so the Doctor and Amy try to get the TARDIS back. 
    I own the game, and I think it's okay. In some puzzles (mostly the jigsaw) when you try to move an object, you sometimes end up move another object you didn't want to move. But I still think it's an okay game.

    Professor Layton and the Curious Village

    Hey everyone. Today's educational game is Professor Layton and the Curious Village. The game is part of the Professor Layton series; which involves the main characters, Professor Layton and his assisstant Luke, who solve puzzles that are part of the mystery plot. With The Curious Village, Professor Layton recieves a letter from a lady whose husband, who was a millionaire or a lord, die and left a riddle in his will. The riddle will lead anyone solves it to his treasure, The Golden Apple. You have to guide Professor Layton and Luke around the village and solve many different puzzles. While solving these puzzles, you will earn points and at the end of the game you'll recieve a prize.
    I own this game and I think it's really good. I have fun when I'm doing the puzzles, and feel happy when I solved them and I didn't need any hints to help me. Through out the game, there will be animated videos that play out through the story.
    So I would suggest to buy Professor Layton and the Curious Village.
