Really charming and funny adventure, mostly centered on "mini-game" puzzles. The puzzle design is REALLY good and varied. I loved its juvenile tone, its humor and its excellent voice acting.
Such a cute little puzzle game, I played this on my PS Vita and wanted to play it on Steam again so I could play episode 2.
Solve puzzles around campus to unveil the mystery of our new best friend; Bigfoot.
This is a quirky story-based puzzler with beautiful visuals and a surprisingly decent—if not a little snarky—sense of humor. I enjoyed it, and you might too.
Only two episodes have ever been released, and apparently the game didn't get as much attention as the developers had hoped, but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying it in any way.
By the way, Giant Bomb did a Quick Look of it at one point, you might wanna check it out if you're on the fence.
This is exactly like Prof Layton, and to be honest I am happy to see these types of games appear more and more! Although one small detail, the story progresses rather slowly and (personal opinion) it could use more mysterious vibe but I guess I'm comparing it to much to Prof Layton.
The puzzles themselves are all really well done! Especially how the puzzles are used to directly progress the story, although some have a tendency to get sidetracked. I know that Layton also uses puzzles as part of the storyline, what I'm saying is that you won't really find any "this reminds me of a puzzle" moments in this game, pretty much all puzzles are used to progress the plot.
Anyway, 10/10 loved it!
a sweet and atmospheric puzzle game. played it on mobile before and found the pc version even better in terms of graphics on the big screen.
controls are a bit clunky at times so getting all achievements might be tough.... but you can play the whole game without issues.
i really love the atmosphere and subtle humour of the series so i recommend it even tho the developers sadly apparently abandoned it after episode 2 :(
but playing it till then is very enjoyable so if you like the genre and the cute graphics, go ahead!
btw buying eps 1 and 2 as a bundle is cheaper.
Great puzzle game for kids or even adults. some of the puzzles are simple and others just make you wanna rage quite for a bit but their all great fun. the game follows Jacob and his friend bigfoot who disguise himself as a dog so no one knows who he really is. The game is done up with a pretty cute art style to.
I'm waiting desperately for episode 3. This game and episode 2 fils that need for a Professor Layton style sotry/puzzle game, and I love it. However, the camera angels don't really allow you to collect everything, so if you are a completionist, you might be disappointed.
A very good puzzle game with interesting puzzles ranging from easy to challenging difficulty. It's aesthetically pleasing, really colorful and cute. The controls are a little annoying at the beginning but you get used to them after awhile. I highly recommend it to whomever wants a simple brain teaser.
Jacob Jones is a pretty high quality puzzle adventure game. I didn't like a few of the puzzles, one or two I thought were too difficult, but overall it is a decent title. The second episode I thought had much better thought out puzzles.
To anyone who said this game was shorter. I don't think so anyway!. The game price are fairly valuable.
As well, is a wild version of Professor Layton Mystery Solving puzzle game (Yup!, many people said that about this game). Includes fiendish puzzles (but some puzzles are piece of cake!), great "papercraft-look" landscapes, great stories, and funny characters (well, especially I like Flommerly's voice and it makes me laugh especially his lost face and win face reaction LOL!).
You'd better get this game alongside it's second episode "RoadtRIP!", but getting Jacob Jones bundle is more cheaper than you buy all of them in one price each. Also, the game looks was completely great and better on PC and iPad than from android tablets. I was thinking why not this little game to be Steam exclusives alongside with "Costume Quest" series for kids?.
Hoping the third episode will come out because there is something that what is predicted from episode 1 and 2?.
Pros:
Satisfying puzzles.
Wonderful humour and characters.
Cute graphics and sounds.
Bigfoot!
Cons:
Lack of configuration options.
Annoying swaying screen effect and blurred edges.
Individually, each episode is a little brief.
I stumbled over Jacob Jones by accident and fell in love with the trailer and then the game. It's easily compared to Professor Layton and may be just as good.
For the 5 Dollar Price Tag (also available on IOS and Android for about 2$ an episode) you'll get a lovely crafted story, a beautifully and rich designed set, cool and quirky characters (my favorite being the death metal loving, red haired boy deathkill) and 24 puzzles that range from very easy to "huh?!". A lot of effort has gone into the game, with every character being voiced really well and an artstyle that's reminiscent of viva pinata and dreamworks movies. It looks and sounds just super charming.
I'm really excited for episode 2 and i'm totally okay with the price. The 5$ had me playing for about 3 hours, 4 for getting all of the achievements.
One of the coolest discoveries this year!
A beautiful game with some moderate brain teasers and a cute summer camp story. A great way to kill a few hours.
This is what the Professor Layton games would be like, had they been made by Double Fine. They overuse DoF and the interface is a bit too much like a mobile game, but that doesn't stop it from being a very charming, entertaining game.
Great game, very layton-esque as many people say. There needs to be more games like this, I hope the next game they make has a more adult theme though.
I rather enjoyed this game. It's basically Professor Layton or Puzzle Agent, but with a cute story. You'll get about 2.5 to 3 hours out of this first episode. It's also on Android and iOS and I could actually see it working a bit better as a tablet game. Looks great on PC though and it gives you that Costume Quest childish feel.
Very charming game. It has the "Double Fine" vibe where everything is cute but you can still very much enjoy it as an adult.
Gameplay is very similar to Professor Layton.
The first episode took me about 2 hours to complete. It ends at a good point, no weird cutoff points like some other episodic content has.
I sometimes had some troubles with the puzzles because they were made for touch controls. It's easy to get used to though.
Note that I had some performance issues but I have been able to fix it by messing with the settings of "JacobJonesSystemSettings.ini" at "My Games\UnrealEngine3\JacobJonesGame\Config"
If you're a fan of the Professor Layton games on the DS, then give this charming title a look. Although it borrows (read: steals) a few of the mechanics from that series-- such as the merit points awarded and finding soda cans instead of hint coins (which fulfill the same purpose)-- this is by no means a bad thing. The world is also beautiful to look at and explore, filled with some very amusing characters with genuinely funny dialogue. Despite the game's shortness-- with just 24 puzzles and the story included-- £4 is good value for what you get, with more promised by the developer to come soon. Despite being somewhat inferior to the Layton series, this is still worth your time if you're craving some lighthearted puzzle action.
PROS:
+Stylish graphics make the game look great
+Charming characters with funny dialogue to boot
+Puzzles are more challenging than the art style suggests
+Cheap
CONS
-Suspiciously similar mechanics to the Layton series
-Some difficulty in clicking on soda cans when Jacob blocks view of them
-Short in length
-Writing memos can be somewhat tricky with a mouse
Overall score: 7/10, would recommend
Very nice game in the style of the Professor Layton games for the DS. Nice puzzles, with varying degrees of difficulty, and an interesting plot, made all the more interesting by its episodic format.
