This game is filled with funny catch phrases and animations. If you're someone that likes to play on the good side and catch a few laughs then this is the game for you. You play the role of Phoenix Wright and the name says it all. Mr. Wright is what you call a miracle worker in the courts and those that oppose justice beware because Phoenix Wright is there!

Phoenix Wright is 24 years old and I'm 24 years old! Phoenix Wright works for a lawyer with huge boobs and I work for a lawyer with huge boobs! Hooray this game is great!
Too average in comparison to others on DS.

Average to decent game, but there is so much better out there for the DS. Even in the text-based genre that Phoenix Wright is based in, it only pales in comparison to something like Hotel Dusk.
If you actually like games where you just sit there reading text, then I'd say get this and Hotel Dusk, as well as whatever sequels for Phoenix Wright they have planned in the future. If you're like me though, and believe there should only be one text-based game on your DS, then get Hotel Dusk without a doubt and pass up on this semi-mediocre experience.
I will say the fourth level (the last non-touch screen using level) was pretty interesting though.
Awesome game

this game is much more fun than it looks. Be an investigator, solve a mystery, take part in a court trial, get to shout "Hold it!" and "objection!" It's great!
One of a kind

Feels like an old graphic adventure but set with a law background. Loaded with features and clever ways of using a DS.
A GREAT GAME
Fantastic

I just loved this game. I am looking forward to the 2nd Phoenix Wright game that is due to come out in January. I love text-base games and there are not very many of them. I hope there are more soon.
Not for anyone who knows anything about the law

This was purchased for me as a gift because I'm about 6 months away from being a lawyer. I know that this is a Japanese game, and therefore the portrayal of the legal system won't necessarily translate perfectly for people used to the US legal system. But I can tell you that if you're a US law student/lawyer, the only thing you'll do while playing this game is pick out all the things that are wrong/inaccurate and yearn to make this like a real game of legal strategy that would be super useful. As a result, I hated this game within the first 15 minutes.
boy, was i disappointed

This game could not be any more boring if it tried. I tried to stick with it and play through to the end, but, I only made it as far as the third case.
The most annoying part was the awful capcom graphics, and the constant shaking that seemed to go on.
Best Game Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is fun to do the court action but the music and style of the graphics can get annoying.
