Phoenix Wright vs. Professor Layton (or is it Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright)

Ever wonder what would happen if the two greatest minds in video games joined forces to solve a mystery? Well your wish is granted with this:

 

Professor_Layton_vs._Phoenix_Wright_Ace_

Tree's Apprentice and Quarter Guy would love this.

 

Basically, Phoenix Wright, his assistant Maya Fey, Professor Layton and his assistant Luke are transported to Labyrinthia where a young woman is accused of witchcraft and Phoenix Wright must defend her in court while Layton solves problems to figure out what the deal is with this town.

 

This game combines the gameplay of the critically acclaimed Phoenix Wright trials and the underrarted Professor Layton puzzle solving. Which is kinda awesome.

 

One gripe I have with it is Sam Reigel isn't voicing Phoenix. Another... well it's a minor nitpick but I think Apollo's bracelet and Athena's Widget might be seen as dark magic by the people of Labyrinthia so there's that. Other than that, Discuss and tell me what you think.

Well *spoiler alert* Apollo doesn't appear in this game and technically Athena hasn't joined Wrights crew yet since this game is based before Dual Destinies.

Its been out here in Australia for a number of months and I can say the game is well polished. I found that Dual Destinies was a lot more fun though. If you are a big Professor Layton fan, this game might disappoint as the puzzles are a lot easier than in the normal series of games

Hmmm. My guess is it takes place before the pre-events of Apollo Justice Ace Attorney. Meaning it took place before the trial that destroyed Phoenix Wright's career (The trial of Zak Gramarye) since Maya Fey is there. But man the greatest lawyer vs. the greatest thinker, it'll be a clash of minds.
