Overview



If you’re here, it must be to learn more about Ace Attorney. What exactly is Ace Attorney?

“It’s a video game about lawyers. It must be, well, you know…”

I’m afraid I do not know. Could you please add a clarification to your testimony? How exactly must a video game about lawyers be?

“You know. Boring.”

There is a huge contradiction in the statement you just made.

“A contradiction? Don’t be silly, there’s no contradiction.”

Oh yes there is, and I can prove it! The evidence that proves a video game about lawyers doesn’t have to be boring is…



Ace Attorney takes the concept of being a lawyer and turns it into a hilarious, exciting, and all-around awesome experience. It’s a story driven series with elements of point-and-click adventure games and visual novels.

This series is amazing enough to deserve a dedicated page here on the site. The stories, the characters, the humor, the gameplay–it’s one of the few series I have enough confidence in to immediately want each new entry. Consider this your hub for all of my Ace Attorney content.

Gameplay is divided into two major styles: investigations and trials. During investigation sections, you search for clues and talk to characters to prepare your case. During trials, you cross-examine witnesses, present evidence, and point out contradictions in witness testimonies.

The series currently consists of six main-series games, three spin-offs, and one crossover:

The first three games have been collected in the Phoenix Wright Trilogy, available on the Nintendo eShop.

If you want to give them a try and don’t know where to start, check out my guide on the order to play the Ace Attorney series.

As of now, neither Gyakuten Kenji 2 (Investigations 2) nor Dai Gyakuten Saiban (The Great Ace Attorney) is available outside of Japan. Join me in my efforts to get GK2 localized and join our Facebook campaign.

Dai Gyakuten Saiban’s ultimate fate is still uncertain.
