This level. Oh this level. Do you know those bonus stages in Professor Layton that basically provide no clues with the hint coins because the puzzle is just too complicated to explain? That is what it felt like trying to write Droia's Tips for this level.
Anyway, welcome to level 7-9, or level 69. It is not very nice. This is a very difficult open ended puzzle where you need to control both the shadow and yourself to raise and lower the barriers with the purple and teal switches while being aware of the lasers closing off your paths. Trying to solve this puzzle purely through trial and error is a fool's errand. I highly recommend you have a plan ready to grab each key so you can quickly race to the goal at the end. Those chasers can easily pin you with poor planning.
There is a way to grab the medal while activating the top laser by the way. It involved grabbing the far left key without defeating the fire trall. But it is a little tedious and technical so I omitted it from Droia's Tips.
Point of trivia: This level took me over three weeks in order to design its first draft, and I actually forgot the medal solution afterwards during testing. Took me over a year before I finally had a final copy of this stage where I was satisfied everything worked as intended. This was easily the level I spent the most time making.
