acts 1 - 3 are really rough. 1 is just super forgettable and basic. 2 has really awful investigations due to so many rooms close together (phoenix makes one funny british joke tho), and i am not big fan of the characters. 3 has worst characters and writing. and von karma thru out all 3 is super annoying bc of her whip. These 3 are very very boring and made me almost stop playing.

act 4 is so so good. the writing is witty and funny and emotionally charged. edgeworth is great as always. the new characters are all developed very interestingly. not as many twists and turns as last two cases of the first game, but unlike the first game, the investigation here is much more consistent (but still not great). there is still issues with really specific answers that require a guide, and the fact that you cant skip intro texts, among other things. the ending of the case caps everything off nicely. so far this case is in top 3 for me among these two games.

so how do u rate a game that is 75% trash and 25% godlike? really prob more than 25 percent but estimation. well idk. im not replaying those parts of the game again if i ever play this again. it sucks, if the game was just act 4 it would get a very very high rating. ah well.

Stupid blowing into mic games. Stupid artstyle for cutscenes. Bad humor kinda. Cant skip cutscenes. And have the album where u gotta play games over and over but repetitive. Idk why it stops u from playing at the boss stage. Forced replay value. And i dont like having to replay boss stages. The minigames all use the touchscreen. Abt as good as gba warioware games.

But best thing ever. U have the toys. They r the most gimmicky shit. Its shit like spinning a yoyo or playing with clackers. Its actually amazing. Best thing by far and the game feels like theres more content (even tho not really). I also love how just like gba, its made to look very early 2000s with the tabs and menus.

With the stuff u can unlock and the stupid toys this ones more replayable

U spend twenty thousand hours dealing with the shitty water controls and the bad camera and the annoying sfx and the fact that u gotta go to mumbo to take away ur power and the cheap hitboxes and the fact that the hub world IS TOTAL ASS and then when u get a game over bc of the cheap hitboxes u gotta go all the way to the start of the castle and u dont ever know where to go. And u gotta find ur way with the shitty water controls to go back where u are. And then the horrible final boss and the only reason i win is bc a big blue dude who youve never met slams into the witch anyway this games great
