What Am I? is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Last Specter.
Puzzle
- US Version
Who needs batteries or silly old springs?
I have no want for those kinds of things.
My top is my bottom, my bottom my top.
If you knock me over, I surely stop.
Awake from sleep with a soft touch.
I'll never be late...at least, not by much.
Can you guess what I am? Circle me!
- UK Version
"Forget batteries and silly old springs.
I have no need for such fiddly things.
Though made of glass and somewhat fragile,
With good direction, I'm rather agile.
And though you'll never make me rush,
I'm never late - well, not by much.
Can you guess what I am? Circle me."

Correct
Correct!
- US Version
The answer is an hourglass.
If objects could talk, an hourglass would be a poet or a comedian. It has great timing, after all...
- UK Version
It was an hourglass.
It makes sense that the hourglass is a poet. It has a strong sense of timing, after all.
