Depending on how used to adventure games you are, these sections may be frustrating, or easy I’m fairly used to tortured adventure game logic and they’re certainly simpler than the puzzle solving in a game like Myst.ĭuring the Courtroom segments of the game, the game has two basic mechanics, and these are the ones I want to discuss in more detail. The most tedious part of Investigation mode is moving from location to location, since the locations are oriented in a branching fashion and there is no fast travel, but the logic puzzles are your pretty standard adventure game faire. Your inventory, both in investigation and courtroom modes, is referred to as the Court Record, and provides small descriptions of items you may be carrying or simply items you have seen which may be useful in or out of the courtroom. Your options are to Move, Investigate (which is like the Look command, and allows you to select different objects or areas in your location to look at), Talk (to a person who is present in that location, provided there is one), and Present (which is just like the Give command in an adventure game). During these segments Phoenix Wright behaves a bit like an old school menu-driven adventure game. In the game, there are two main game modes, a Courtroom mode, and an Investigation mode where you act a bit like a detective.ĭuring the Investigation segments of the game, you have the option to move around between different in-game locations, and talk to people who are involved in a high-profile court case (murder trial). So broadly, here is how the Phoenix Wright game is played. Though I’m given to understand there is another new mechanic in Apollo Justice introduced later, it’s not represented in the demo version of the game. You may want to check out the demo linked above, but it’s not required as I will explain everything, or at least try to! Note that I’m only really discussing the original game in this segment.
More after the jump, just for space saving…

I’m writing here to explore why the game itself is fun, but why the free demo was such a huge turnoff for me when it came out. It really did the opposite of drawing me in to the characters and the world, and cemented my decision not to buy the game at that time. Now while I admire that Capcom did something as neat as releasing a free Flash demo for a handheld game, this is a really crummy demo if you’re trying to get new people interested in the game series. As a fan of adventure type games, I’m enjoying it a lot. I just purchased Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney on WiiWare last week, and was pleasantly surprised by the game. It took a lot of convincing (from my brother) for me to give the series a second shot.

After playing this on-line demo I was pretty convinced that the whole series was overratted: that’s how much of a misstep the demo design was.
The demo still technically exists: you can play it here at Destructoid. When “Apollo Justice” came out for the DS a couple of years ago, a free demo in Flash, on the official web site, was available, so I thought this would be a perfect time to give the game a try and see what people were talking about. It seemed like a lot of people were talking about this game in my circle of friends, mostly for the characters and dialog, but I kind of missed the cutoff point for getting an original copy of the game. I missed the Phoenix Wright boat by several years. What I want to talk about with this entry is another old game I’m playing lately, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney, and contrast it with the demo that was released for Ace Attourney Apollo Justice, a later entry in the series.
