The Good
- Original gameplay, highlighted by strong dialogue puzzling
- great use of DS functionality
- intricate storylines that weave characters from case to case
- laugh-out-loud dialogues blended well with darker and more serious plot moments.
The Bad
- Hard to find much downside to this game. Small screens make pixel hunting for interactive spots an issue
- voice activated commands did not work consistently
- the anime graphics and limited visual and audio presentation may not appeal to all gamers.
Our Verdict
Excellent
A superb game that excels in just about every area, held back only by one or two notable flaws or a collection of smaller ones that prevent the game from earning full marks.
Phoenix Wright takes the best of classic adventures, wraps it up in an engaging package and delivers one great game. With its charming gameplay, excellent use of the Nintendo DS features, truly funny dialogue, intricate plot, and personable cast of characters, this “soon to be a classic” title offers plenty of gaming enjoyment.
