It feels as if Hideo Kojima wrote the entire final act. I still prefer Layton over Phoenix, mostly because the trials are padded to feel more "complex" and the way it wants you to resolve the cases is rigid and sometimes artificial. The puzzles here are also quite easy if you put them next to the better Layton games. It was a fun ride and I wish companies would try to do more crossovers between their franchises, but I don't think I will be replaying this ever again.
