Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box: Complete Puzzle List

Every puzzle in Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box (Pandora’s Box in Europe and Australia), in number order. Linked titles have their own page with three short hints, the answer and a full explanation. More are added as we check each answer.

How to read this list

• No. is the number in the game’s puzzle index. It’s the same in North America and Europe.
• Title is the North American name. The Europe / UK column shows the European name where it differs: (same puzzle) means only the name changed. (different puzzle) means the European version has a different puzzle under that number. † For 052 the puzzle keeps its name, but the days of the week are shifted by one in the European version.
• Chapter is where the puzzle first becomes available. Puzzles 139–153 are bonus puzzles in Layton’s Challenges, found in the Bonus menu.
• An asterisk (*) means the sources we checked disagree on that value.

In total there are 138 main-game puzzles and 15 bonus puzzles.
