ABOUT
The Ace Attorney Trilogy brings the original three games to the big screen. Or the palm of your hand...again. But in HD! Featuring redone artwork to give a fresh coat of paint to some old classics.
In the simplest terms possible, the Ace Attorney series is a point-and-click adventure with an emphasis on critical thinking. You play as rookie attorney Phoenix Wright, and have to get to the bottom of cases that just get crazier and crazier.
Gameplay is split into two parts: Investigations and Courtrooms. Investigations are where you examine the environment, talk to witnesses, etc. to gather evidence and prepare for your battle with the prosecution.
Courtrooms are where all the truth comes to light. Cross examine a colorful cast, look for contradictions in their testimonies, and piece together the truth behind each case.
Need I say more? No!
Reviews
"This shit lit, fam" - Me
"Game of the year, all years" - You, soon
Q&A
"Should I play these in order?" - Yes. The series has an ongoing story, and you'd be doing yourself a disservice to jump around. Ace Attorney -> Justice For All -> Trials and Tribulations is the natural course of things, and the game presents it as such.
"Ladder, or stepladder?" - Stepladder
"Where does this take place?" - Just eat your burgers and don't think too hard about it.

*PLEASE MARK SPOILERS*
There are likely going to be a good amount of first time players here, so please use caution regarding that. The games are all split into cases which makes it pretty easy to section off what you're talking about.
Nobody else seemed to be making this so I did. Court is now in session. Add Phoenix Wright to Smash.
