Les fans de Layton qui aiment vraiment la logique pure risquent de trouver ça frustrant... j'ai un pote exactement dans ce cas, il a lâché au deuxième cas.
SilentHunter2
Is anyone else surprised this holds a 77% win rate after all this time? The writing carries every single case even when the puzzle logic gets a bit generous with the player. What else at this rank can say the same?

objection ouais mais franchement (le stylet cassé ça résume tout le jeu de l'époque) c'était le jeu parfait pour les trajets courts
BossWolf
Le win rate de 77% dit surtout que le jeu écrit bien, écrit vraiment bien, même quand la logique du puzzle relâche un peu la bride.

It's fun for what it is, but compared to Layton it feels thinner on actual puzzle mechanics, more about reading than thinking. The courtroom drama carries it, sure, but as a genre exercise it leans way more on writing than on player skill.

Jajaja el dedo en la pantalla, a mí me pasaba lo mismo con mis primos, todos gritando la misma palabra a la vez.
OcéaneOwl
Ah oui, tellement plus léger que Layton, un jeu où on choisit une bulle de dialogue, quel exploit cognitif.

Lo defiendo a muerte, sí, sé que no es objetivo pero cada vez que alguien lo critica me sale la vena de abogado defensor de verdad.
TurboLegend
Je comprends l'attachement mais defendre un jeu à mort empêche aussi de voir ses limites, non, l'enquête traine parfois et personne ne le dit jamais ici?
ArcadePhoenix2
Chacun sa vena de abogado, moi je vote surtout par habitude à ce stade, sans grande conviction d'un côté ou de l'autre entre les deux.

Buen juego, con sus altibajos, la investigación a veces se siente lenta comparada con los interrogatorios que son mucho más ágiles y llevan el peso de toda la experiencia... no sé si merece estar tan arriba pero tampoco tan abajo.
