Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is a visual novel and adventure game developed by Capcom. Players control rookie defense attorney Phoenix Wright as he investigates crimes and defends clients accused of murder in a series of increasingly elaborate cases. Each case is divided between investigation and courtroom sections. During investigations, players examine crime scenes, collect evidence and question witnesses. In court, Phoenix must compare testimony against the evidence, identify contradictions and present the right items at the right moment. The game mixes murder mysteries with comedy, eccentric characters and dramatic courtroom confrontations. Recurring figures such as Maya Fey, Miles Edgeworth and Detective Gumshoe become central to the story as Phoenix takes on five cases and gradually uncovers connections between them.
