Bio
I like a little bit of everything, but I'm mostly into narrative mystery games, roguelikes and rpgs.
I still don't have a very clear idea on how to structure my reviews, but I'll try my best to sum up my thoughts on any aspect I found interesting.

Not bad but kind of the worst Ace Attorney I have played to date.
Found cases 3 and 5 interesting story-wise, but the logic wasn't that great.
Gameplay feels simplified and rushed, the game doesn't allow you to explore or get lost, everything feels pretty linear. Making the scene investigation mode only avalaible at certain stages and giving the player too much guidance contributes to this sensation. Even if they were as linear as this one, previous games feel much more open-ended just because the player has more autonomy deciding the order and the actions they take.
Other than that I did like the connectedness between the cases, and how everything was related.

Weird and dramatic, I love the presentation and overall style and musical choices.
Really like how it ties into A Vague Story too.
There is a conscious choice to make the gameplay obfuscated and tedious, as you break down the game's secrets, that really acompanies the narrative.

Pretty original concept!
Found the idea of your choices defining not only the narrative but the genre and tone really interesting. Reminds me in a way of role-playing games and choose your own adventure books.
