The last of the mainline Professor Layton games wraps up the prequel trilogy in a fashion with a globe-trotting adventure with a lot of locations and major plot revelations. Even in the sometimes ludicrous world of Layton, I definitely didn’t buy into all the plot twists and character turns that happen here, some of which felt forced to get us on track to Curious Village and so forth. But it’s still an engaging story and I was curious to see it through.

Credit always has to go to puzzle master Akira Tago, who died in 2016. A legend and the backbone of what made these games so great along the way. Professor Layton is a really fun series to get into and I’d definitely suggest starting at the beginning. Azran Legacy isn’t a bad final chapter to the gentleman’s adventures.
