Edit FINAL: Case 5: 10/10. For being originally in 2015, this game was well ahead of its time. The final case was very satisfying overall, and everything fit together well. I'm glad I had the chance to experience this, and it's a game in the lawyer-like series that you don't want to miss. Final opinion: ABSOLUTELY recommend. Play Case 1, and if you like that, play the rest! Edit: UPDATE: Case 1: 10/10 Case 2: 6/10 Case 3: 8.5/10 Case 4: 11/10 holy shit absolute banger The translation IS still rough, and there's some evidence that isn't translated at all. I urge the developers to work on that ASAP. That said, the writing and plot as a whole is EXCELLENT. Phoenix Wright hasn't been this clever in weaving everything together in a while, and I still strongly urge people to either get it now if they can deal with some jank, or wait and pick it up later if they cannot. Playing Case 5 now. Some time ago, I played the demo and quit halfway through. The English was janky, and I could feel it wasn't polished, it needed more time. I'm happy to say, that's not the case in the full game. This game SLAPS . I've only completed case 1 so far, but it was a VERY interesting case 1. Plot twists that I didn't expect, tropes visited and then subverted, a thoughtful insight mode, all excellent stuff. It is absolutely inspired by Phoenix Wright, and has several references to it; but I think it also does its own thing, and builds off of those games in a very fun and interesting way. If the rest of the game is anything like case 1, this is an ABSOLUTE must buy for anyone who loves murder mysteries. :)

[H1]A Trial passed with flying colours[/H1] I'm updating this review having just completed Trials of Innocence. Most of my initial impressions from having completed case one still hold true - it's a solid mystery game, that managed to wrong foot me once or twice with its puzzles and problems. The translation remains an issue, and there's a few little bits and pieces where the team's limited art budget shows, but overall it's a well written mystery game, beautifully presented. But I was particularly impressed by it showing a degree of sympathy towards the true culprits and the philosophical complexity of the law. That's something other media works that focus on trials don't always manage to achieve. Ace Attorney is infamous for its breakdowns; finally getting a murderer to crack and reveal their true nature. Trials of Innocence does this too, largely as a tribute to the series it takes a lot of inspiration from, but every single 'true killer' is treated with a degree of sympathy and understanding. It's quite refreshing I feel it could've gone a bit further to develop that theme; we still have some characters presented as more solidly evil than others. It's clear who the game wants and expects you to sympathise with, and who it feels doesn't really deserve it (Especially in Case 5). Still, this was a worthy effort; showing both how the apparently unlikable can have hidden qualities, and how the seemingly upstanding can be more complicated. I can hardly fault someone for stumbling a little while trying to climb a mountain few others dare even attempt. And with that, back to my initial review! Trials of Innocence makes no attempt to hide its obvious inspiration. I'll be judging it as such. I've played a good number of similar titles: Tyrion Cuthbert, Aviary Attorney, and most recently Of The Devil. There's a balance to strike here; evoke familiar elements while putting your own spin on it. And I'd say Trials of Innocence walks that line beautifully. The writing is solid, easing you in to the mystery solving while still being quite weighty and compelling. It's not a throwaway opening case. The character art is well done, and the animation is superb (though Chapter 1 lacks a 'breakdown' moment.) The devs also took the time to enhance and add to the formula. Instead of going back and forth over a replay of statements, Cross Examination is handled by Luna reflecting on the testimony and picking what to ask for more details about. Like an actual cross examination! And the Confrontations! I'm hoping they recur in later chapters - it's an excellent addition. It takes from Danganronpa's aesthetic, but doesn't replicate the format there either - you get a back and forth with the prosecutor, with music making it feel climactic and cool. Wonderful job! I have only two negative notes, and both boil down to budget. The game doesn't quite have a full set of sound effects. Some moments and actions simply happen in silence, whereas in Ace Attorney a small audio cue is included to emphasise the moment. A little more work here for key moments, like taking damage or securing a not guilty verdict would be extremely effective. More troublesome is the translation. It's not unreadably bad by any means, but if you're more used to content translated by a large professional team, it's going to come off a little clunky. There's nothing that stops you from working out the murder. (Bar one confusing line where the defendant is referred to as 'tied up', which had me baffled for a while.) but you can expect odd phrase construction, strange word and tense usage, that kind of thing. It feels like the translation was done by a primary Chinese speaker who has an academic familiarity with English, but less skill at employing it casually or in conversation.

this game's insane. the first case made me feel like a drooling nincompoop trying to keep up with things. telling you that i was blindsided by like, 3 different things in the first 2 hours is kind of an understatement frankly i think i might prefer it over any other ace attorney game's first case through complexity and introductions alone. maybe it doesn't have the narrative strength of turnabout memories or whatevs with 2 games behind it, but it's got a PUNCH to it. will definitely be playing the rest of this

March 2025

English script definitely needs some polish but the story is still enjoyable in it's current state if you're a fiend for courtroom games.
