What else do you need to know?

Okay, you might want to know something else. Basically, you are a young defense lawyer, or barrister if you’re posh. The game is split between an investigation section (imagine Monkey Island minus the animation) and the trials themselves. In the trials you must find holes in the victim’s testimony by pressing them for information and then presenting evidence to back up your claims. Every small victory against that insufferable witness and prosecutor is guaranteed to bring joy to your heart.

As if you need a good reason to blurt out 'Objection'!

The game is also very linear, but you won’t care. You’ll be laughing, crying and feeling downright uncomfortable in equal measure. Great for those with an interest in law and fans of interactive novels.
