Judgment is an action-adventure game played from a third-person perspective. The game is a legal thriller set in the Yakuza world of Kamurocho and follows private detective Takayuki Yagami as he investigates a serial murder case. It stars Japanese actor Takuya Kimura and employs a fighting system similar to that of Yakuza 0 where players can change into different styles, namely crane-style which is more focused on fighting groups and tiger-style which is more focused on fighting individuals. Additionally, the game features an investigation mode where the player must find traces of the criminal.

Base game is Yakuza-like but they added "phoenix wright" features to it. Its story is the good one, they added "Takuya Kimura" as MC, but the mystery solving part was not so hard, and about the combat honestly I'm not a fan of it since I like powerful moves Kiryu does.
The game itself is good but there are some features that makes it not perfect:
- The story is good but its slow and tiring due to some forced side quest and gang invasions.
- One of the main focus of this game that should be the detective part is simple and easy
- It's minigames are well made but when you try doing 100% it becames a really mess. For an example if you try to 100% the SEGA Arcade part you'll have to play Puyo Puyo game a lot to complete "defeat all enemies" cause some of enemies appear only at high win streak and its random appearing.
- The combat part is worst until you take combo speed up upgrade, but when you upgrade 1v1 style well it becomes funny and strong. Another style is a mess even upgrading so I won't recommend to spend your precious point to it.

Some people might complain that Judgement is just like Yakuza but about detectives and I'm like, "Wait, they made a game that is just like Yakuza but about detectives?!"
Incredible narrative, incredible villain, fun cast of characters that's all really hurt by its poor pacing. It has by far the most padding of any RGG game and some characters aren't fleshed out enough, mainly Higashi. It also had some very... strange parts which made me incredibly uncomfortable in a way I don't think the writers intended at all, I think they intended it very much the other way.
I love Saori though, messy hair women? awesome. gameplay is also some of the best in the franchise

Its decent. Story is....okay. combat is a lot less janky compared to Y6. juggles are a welcome edition. very unfortunate that the "Detective' parts in the game, suck ass. its like how modern day games handle "stealth". not bad for a spin-off.
No es un 5⭐ por las misiones de perseguir y por el combate del Dragon Engine aún sin pulir pero la historia es la mejor en un juego de RGG
Bello, ma troppi pedinamenti.
