Layton’s Mystery Detective Agency: Kat’s Puzzle-Solving Files – 01


When you think of England, what do you think? Yes, detective dramas! We have them all: Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple, Inspector Morse, Cadfael, Dalziel and Pascoe, Jonathan Creek, The Singing Detective… and now we can add Katrielle Layton to that long list of British-based puzzle-solvers. A stone’s throw from Big Ben, you’ll find her agency, where you can hire her if you have a conundrum mysterious enough to tickle her fancy. This week, it’s all about a cursed house that makes people disappear!

Oh and a quick technical note: We have subbed this in the Queen’s English (and a spot of pseudo-Cockney), which means any American upstarts watching might not understand some of the phrases and spellings we’ve used. We’ve also used the localised names and characterisation from the game. This may irk some traditionalists, but as the setting is pretty important to this series, we felt this was the best move.

And yes, we are working on catching up to the current airing episode. We just had a few kinks to work out which is why it took a while to get this one out >.> But expect more fireworks soonish(TM).

Charady’s Daily Joke – 69-73

Charady 73
I’m not sure if anyone remembers (I’d almost forgotten) but we still do this project, so here’s another 5 episodes of mild hilarity for your pleasure to break up the monotony of your otherwise humourless day. Though you might want to make these last, because on current form, it might be a while before the next batch of riproaring jokes comes out ^_^

But onto a more serious note: as I may have mentioned previously, Charady’s Daily Joke was one of the projects that our much-missed colleague CP worked on before he sadly passed away last month. There’s very little I can say in this newspost that hasn’t already been said on this site at one time or another, but releasing this particular batch was always going to be poignant for us (me especially) because this project encapsulated CP’s finest points: his dedication, his love for overlooked shows that most people just won’t touch, and the fact that I could just hurl things at him at a moment’s notice after months of glacial progress and he wouldn’t bat an eyelid – he’d even be overjoyed and throwing them straight back before I had time to blink! So it seems apt that one of the Charady episodes in this batch involves a character raising a glass and drinking to an absent friend, and I’d like to do likewise. Thanks for all your contributions, both as a subber, a team player and a friend, ConsiderPhlebas.

Cheers.
