We’ve had flashback cases in the series before, but “The Memoirs of the Clouded Kokoro” marked the first time an Ace Attorney case took place inside (or close enough to) another case’s chronology. There’s a lot to unpack here as a result … so it’s time for a Deep Dive! I’ll be deconstructing the caseContinue reading “Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Memoirs of the Clouded Kokoro” (Case 2-2)”

Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney” (Case 2-1)
It’s time for the second game in the Great Ace Attorney duology – “Resolve”! I, like many other Ace Attorney fans, consider this to be one of the series’ masterpieces … but let’s take it one case at a time and start with the first case, “The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney”. I’ll be deconstructingContinue reading “Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney” (Case 2-1)”
Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Great Departure” (Case 1-1)
Not too long ago I finished my “Ace Attorney Deep Dive” series for the main entries, but recently I’ve found myself wanting to dive back into one of my favourite gaming franchises. I don’t think there’s a better duology to look at than the fantastic “Great Ace Attorney” spin-off games! If you’re unfamiliar with myContinue reading “Great Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Adventure of the Great Departure” (Case 1-1)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Storyteller” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 4)
Alright. I’ll be honest with you all. Usually when I write these brief introductions I keep my opinion out of it and try to keep specifics vague, but this time there’s no point hiding it – “Turnabout Storyteller” is pointless. It’s a meaningless murder case near the end of “Spirit of Justice’s” runtime. It’s aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Storyteller” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 4)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Magical Turnabout” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 2)
After a bit of a break from Ace Attorney, I’m back with one of my Deep Dives – this time for “The Magical Turnabout”, a case involving a murder at a magic show. I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving a score out of ten for each. This will give aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Magical Turnabout” (Spirit Of Justice – Case 2)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout For Tomorrow” (Dual Destinies – Case 5)
“Turnabout For Tomorrow” picks up right where “The Cosmic Turnabout” left off – Athena is accused of Clay Terran’s murder, a mysterious Phantom is still running amok, and Apollo is still donning bandages and an eyepatch. One thing’s for sure – we’ve got an Ace Attorney finale on our hands! I’ll be deconstructing the caseContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout For Tomorrow” (Dual Destinies – Case 5)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Academy” (Dual Destinies – Case 3)
Phoenix Wright and co. go back to school – by invitation, of course. Phoenix is due to give a defence seminar at Themis Academy, but in classic Ace Attorney fashion something goes horribly wrong. I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categories and giving a score out of ten for each. This will giveContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Academy” (Dual Destinies – Case 3)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Rise from the Ashes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 5)
Originally a bonus case added to mark the Nintendo DS release of the first game, “Rise from the Ashes” sees Phoenix and Edgeworth battle in the courtroom once more to take on their toughest challenge yet. I have a thing or two to say about this one … so it’s time for a comprehensive DeepContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Rise from the Ashes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 5)”
