From Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, there is a Battle of Wits.

Magic square puzzle:

6 5 4
1 3 2
8 7 9

My question is: how can I make ALL rows, columns, and diagonals add up to 15 by only moving 2 numbers around?

I'll be really grateful to the person who can help me!

CLARIFICATION: By moving, I mean switching. When you switch 6 and 4, 4 goes into 6's old spot and vice versa.

Ugh, tried it, it's really hard. A normal solution to this puzzle would be

4 9 2
3 6 7
4 9 2

Ofc PL made it different but maybe this can help

I know how you feel. There was a ball and cup thing, and when he moved it around I ALWAYS got it wrong. I thought it was rigged!

Then I looked at his fingers and one of them was pointing to the 2nd cup

This one's pretty hard. Can you try again? Anyone else?
 
I SHOULD CLARIFY:

When you switch numbers, say this:

4 is moved to 6

6 would be moved to 4's old spot.

But I'm sure everyone knew that
 
I'm not really finding an answer but if it helps, 7, 8, and 9 seem like they cannot be in the same row/column/diagonal.
Those may be the numbers that need moving with other numbers.
I could be wrong, it's just what I think.

Yeah, in the game, they said that the rows are not equal to 15 so you have to move them around lol
Plus, 7, 8, and 9 equals 24
I did think about that
 
Rows
6 5 4 = 15
1 3 2 = 6
8 7 9 = 24

Columns
4 2 9 = 15
5 3 7 = 15
6 1 8 = 15

Diagonal
6 3 9 = 18
8 3 4 = 15

Hope this helps. The sums of each default row/coloumn/diagonal.

Thanks for that, I need to fix 2 rows and 1 diagonal.

Anyone else?

Not Sure if you've solved it by now you most likely have but I'll go ahead and answer.
You can literally use a chip to slide a whole row. By taking 4 and hovering it below 9 you can move the whole row then you take 7 -> switch it with 5 then move the whole row
