This game is great. Don't play it without playing 1 as the entire point of the game will be lost on you. Amazingly well-written and very complicated in the best way. Cases and stuff are good too but the writing here is top-notch.

Emulated using a GBA inject for the 3DS.
This kid is fucked up bruh

It's not.... bad? But I would argue that the writing is the worst in the series. If you like Danganronpa I would say you should give this game a shot. The quality is higher than any other game in the series and there's a lot more content too, and the characters are really fun and have pretty good interactions. The game is definitely never boring either.

This review contains spoilers

The final Ace Attorney game I had to play. Was not expecting what I got at all, especially considering this is my first Layton game -- but hot damn I wasn't expecting any emotional turmoil at all in this game.
It kinda drops the ball in some aspects, what with Luke and Phoenix's reactions to their partner's "deaths" being.. oddly nonchalant especially if you consider Phoenix's reaction to Maya's crisis in JFA. He should NOT have just been able to dust himself off after witnessing her being cast into a pit of flames firsthand and personally not being able to stop it, literally the same exact thing as what almost happened to her in Justice for All's 2-4.
Witnesses were kinda fun though, Wordsmith and Emeer especially I found to be really funny and good additions to the cast. The random whimsical characters around town were nice additions too, and I'm sure on a revisit this game would hold up a lot nicer.
Before the big reveal of magic being fake though this game was kind of a slog and I had trouble tracking what was really happening, especially with the whole invisible cloaks still being real yet magic as a whole not being real. Also, their abductions and stuff weren't really entirely explained, and what really happened on the cargo ship wasn't really clear to me either. Oh well.

TLDR you gotta suspend your disbelief for this one, probably more than you should for a game that so heavily focuses on logic.
