I can't wait to finish it up so I can see if I agree with you about the ending or not. The first Layton had a sweet spot of an ending, a real turn of events and surprises. I didn't expect such a great story at all from Layton when I first got into it!

I mean, the ending felt like a Deus ex Machina, but it really wasn't since it was technically set up throughout the story... but it just felt sooo cheesy to me that I found it disappointing.

Hm, this one is box, and the next one is flute...this is getting a little heavy on innuendo. :/

Well the third one is The Last Time Travel while the 4th will be The Devils Flute

More challenging puzzles though more repeats I agree with. Better mini games indeed! The ending I also hear you on. Not the best but still doable in terms of what Professor Layton games are about.

Moving Beyond Artificial Construction as Explored in the Professor Layton Series

"Blue, sunny skies are perfect weather conditions for puzzle-solving, so contends Hershel Layton, main protagonist of the Professor Layton series of games. Citing the need for a clear mind and a level head, such advice leads me to question why we often categorize the solving of puzzles as a rainy day activity. Nevertheless, it is that very sort of ahead-of-the-game thinking that quickly bore within me a desire to connect with this well-mannered character type from his first adventure in Curious Village." -- Wiiloveit.com

I was looking forward to an insightful, or at the very least intelligent discussion of the Professor Layton series. I found neither.

This article is -profoundly- poorly written.

My guess is that it was either written by a high school student suffering under the mistaken delusion that he or she has some talent with writing... or, perhaps more likely, someone for whom English is a second, third or fourth language.

tl;dr don't waste you're time, folks.
