I still feel very very mixed on this.
Is it a good idea: yes it is.
Does it work well: uh...it's mostly more Layton than Phoenix Wright. I felt it was 70% Laytonish an 30% Ace Attorney-ish.
Are the gameplay respected: well, the trials for Phoenix Wright I'd say yeah. The exploration it's all Layton which is fine since it works well.

But seriously: I don't want a Phoenix Wright game overly filled with puzzles that has barely anything to do with the real plot. For that I'll stick with a Layton game or something.

I'll have to finish to do proper objective conclusions, but it was light years away from the classic Phoenix Wright trilogy. Or, hell, to Apollo Justice.
And if we have to compare it with Layton I'm absolutely out since it's a series I was never very fund, even if I beat the original trilogy. But I guess the 2nd one still remains the best one.
