About this game

It revolves around the adventures of Doctor Lautrec, a professor of Archeology at the Museum of Natural History in Paris, at the end of the 19th century.

He has recently heard rumours that there is an underground system of dungeons beneath the city, and that there is treasure there that could be linked to Louis XIV.
Weirdly enough, it is said that the treasures are somehow alive and protected by the spirit creatures inhabiting them. and many adventurers who have gone to find this so-called "Treasure Animatus" have never returned form their perilous journey.
Intrigued, Doctor Lautrec sets out to a local tavern to buy a treasure map.
To find the treasure, players have to follow a quest through to the end.
Each one starts with the treasure map obtained at Le Repaire, which consists of a cryptic riddle.
Doctor Lautrec and Sophie discuss the riddle with no active player input and eventually this results in a number of possible locations.
These can be visited in turn, either to find NPC's giving them more clues, a dead end (in which case more discussion follows) or the entrance to the dungeon.
Once inside, the player explores several floors of the dungeon, each containing several rooms filled with traps, guards and/or crates.
Each room requires a different approach, for instance pushing crates into gaps in traversable walls, avoiding the guards or timing your way around flaming arrows being shot at regular intervals.
Some rooms have chests containing jewels that are optional but can help later on.
Each dungeon has one main treasure room and several additional treasure rooms, each with a puzzle lock.
Puzzle locks come in a handful of varieties: spot-the-differences puzzles, logic complete-the-sequence puzzles, crosswords in French (the words are given but you have to find the correct location in the grid), a three-dimensional jigsaw and a Minesweeper-variant.
About Nintendo 3DS
The Nintendo 3DS (2011) added glasses-free stereoscopic 3D and a second analog input to Nintendo's handheld line, eventually building a library that rivaled the DS in size and quality. Because the eShop for digital purchases has since closed, physical 3DS cartridges are the only way to preserve access to many titles — a dynamic that's pushing more collectors toward cartridge-based copies even for games that were originally digital-first.
Gamevaro tracks Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights for Nintendo 3DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DS release dates back to 2011.
