Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney -- A Game Review
As a fan Gyakutan Saiban or also known as the Phoenix Wright trilogy, I was intrigued with the new game that was released which is Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. Not only Phoenix Wright has been replaced as the protagonist, but most of the staff has disappeared as well. The only people who were included in the new game was of course Phoenix Wright, Ema Skye and the wonderful judge, who is still weird ever.
But I digress.
The game as also the same gameplay as the previous releases, but with additional powers / talents. With the help of his bracelet, Apollo Justice can sense the habits of the suspects and witnesses when they lie or nervous about a part of their testimonies -- this is called the Perceive System. Also, with the help of Trucy (adoptive daughter of Phoenix), she can perform magic tricks to help Apollo perform his job (not that he needed any help).
Other than that, players can also enjoy more time investigating using scientific methods like finger printing. This was a good addition to the game that it's previous releases lack. The graphics are improved compared to the previous releases, as some are in d format for good visualization. A simulation of the crime scene is also included for good visualization and finding more clues.
The cases that were presented in the game were unique which ranges from panty-snatching thief to a stolen noodle stand of a harmonica playing ex-surgeon. Thinking out of the box is still a key trait to use when playing this game, and with a little comprehension to the side, to understand what was the case all about.
While Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney might be the shortest game in the Gyakutan Saiban releases, it offers the same entertainment and mind boggling cases as it's predecessors. It also boasts hilarious lines that would make any player laugh while taking a testimony of a suspect. Overall, it's a great addition to the Gyakuten Saiban series.
