Luckily, Layton devises a plan to catch up with Descole by using a pterosaur's skeleton as a handglider to perform an emergency landing to the launch pad where the Bostonius is and [[spoiler:face Descole in a fencing duel]].

And ''in turn'' said items are obtained as rewards by solving individual puzzles that appear over the course of the game, thus making it a threefold meta-puzzle.

Each animal guides him a number of squares on the way, but no two animals from the same species in a row guide him, nor can there be any animal in the tiles with bare tres, so the player has to figure out the exact sequence of animal placements.
