Trials of Innocence

Very cool Ace Attorney-inspired mystery visual novel/game. The devs clearly understand what makes Ace Attorney great and do a good job of capitalizing on those strengths (humorous writing, crazy characters, thrilling court segments) while also putting their own spin on it. As a huge fan of AA, I tend to seek out games inspired by it and of the ones I've played, I think that this game, at its core, comes the closest to matching the energy and quality of its inspiration. I also enjoyed the way the story has themes that complement and contrast the themes we see in a few of the Ace Attorney games, informed by a Chinese perspective. In the end, it forms a sort of companion piece to the AA games which I found neat. While I very much enjoyed the story and characters, unfortunately there are issues that lessened my experience with the game. The translation is not good. About 1/4 of the lines are outright broken English, and most of the remaining ones are worded very unnaturally. I was constantly taken out of the experience because I found myself playing editor in my head, trying to rewrite the sentences to make them read nicely. Beyond the stylistic issues, there are also a number of technical errors such as typos, incorrect width characters, untranslated text, weird encoding artifacts (ex. ' appearing where apostrophes should have been), and repeated text that seems like the result of an accidental copy-paste. Another minor issue is buggy controls. I played on Steam Deck, and it seems like the game really isn't optimized well for controllers. Often the game will simply lose track of where your cursor is and you have to spam buttons to get it to reappear. About 90% of the game is simply moving through text though, so this isn't a huge issue. This really is a great game underneath all the problems with presentation, and I'd highly recommend it for anyone who loves Ace Attorney and can stomach the jank. Maybe if it gets popular enough it could be retranslated, or at least given a significant editing pass?

这游戏前面两章第三章开始感觉进入主线，操作就繁琐起来了

Ok so i don't usually do reviews but since this game isn't really well known so i'll go ahead and drop one. first off would an Ace attorney fan like this game? YES. I myself have actually never been crazy about the series but yeah i feel like if you at least enjoy those games you will enjoy this one. Anyway this game just plays as Ace attorney. with a few unique aspects. As for the content there are 5 chapters and 6 cases yes one chapter technically has two cases. And throughout the game you play as 2 characters. them being Luna ray and Charlie drake. they're both pretty good to be honest. A lot of the characters are actually pretty good. As for the cases themselves eh they can be kinda easy at times but not a bad thing. I got to admit i have a special soft spot for case 3 and case 6 in particular. I got somewhat emotional in those. both have very good stories. Some people say the translation is very bad but i didn't many problems with it. Anyways the Mysteries my be a hit or miss for you but i generally think the overall story and the characters are the best part of the game. Also i didn't think any of the cases were bad personally. as for how i would rank the cases i guess it would be worst to best 1 2 4 5 3 6 Yeh very good game 8/10.
