Fresh twist with new mechanics and engaging storytelling
Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth offers a fresh twist on the familiar formula of the Ace Attorney series by placing you directly in the shoes of the brilliant prosecutor Miles Edgeworth. For me, it was an exciting experience to investigate crime scenes and solve mysteries, rather than the usual courtroom drama. The game introduces new mechanics, such as the ability to freely roam and analyse evidence on the spot, which made the experience feel more dynamic and engaging.
The sharply written dialogues, memorable characters, and complex plot twists stay true to the charm of the series. I found it fantastic how the writers managed to bring the characters to life, making me truly invested in the story. Although the absence of courtroom cases sets a different tone, I really enjoyed the mix of puzzles and storytelling. It’s a game that can appeal to both fans of the series and newcomers, as it offers a unique perspective on the Ace Attorney universe.
The visual style and music also contribute to the atmosphere of the game. The detailed environments and catchy music drew me right into the story. While I sometimes missed the intense courtroom sessions, the intriguing storyline and challenging puzzles more than made up for it. Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth is a worthy addition to the series and a must-play for anyone who enjoys well-written adventure games with a touch of mystery.
