Characters and gameplay from both series meet in a medieval fantasy crossover.
Here is an excerpt from Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney's Nintendo Store description:
When the mysterious Espella is pursued through London by a bewildering force, she desperately seeks help from legendary puzzle investigator Professor Layton and his assistant Luke Triton. However, before the duo are able to work out what’s going on, Espella is suddenly kidnapped. While attempting to track her down, Layton and Luke encounter a strange book and are transported to the outlandish medieval city of Labyrinthia – a place allegedly inhabited by witches and magic!
Meanwhile, defence attorney extraordinaire Phoenix Wright and spirit medium-in-training Maya Fey also find themselves teleported to Labyrinthia after discovering the same book during a business trip to London. When he realises that Espella is be put on trial as a witch, Phoenix decides to defend her in court. While Phoenix learns the bizarre laws of the land, Professor Layton sets out to solve the mysteries of Labyrinthia – but can the two masters of their professions work together long enough to save the day? Uncover the truth in Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, only on Nintendo 3DS!
Two entirely unique gameplay styles collide – investigate the mysteries of Labyrinthia, solving puzzles as you go, then seek justice in the courts of law! Professor Layton’s expertise is put to the test as he explores the city, finding clues, solving puzzles and speaking with its enigmatic inhabitants. Meanwhile, Phoenix Wright defends his client to the end in a courtroom quite unlike any he’s experienced before. With completely different laws and logic at play in Witch Trials, Phoenix must cross-examine witnesses, and sometimes even quiz multiple people at once to find contradictions!
