Apollo Justice - Ace Attorney is the fourth game in the series, and it throws you right into the courtroom as the new guy—Apollo, a rookie attorney with a serious underdog vibe. The first case hits you with a murder trial where your client is, surprise surprise, Phoenix Wright himself (yeah, that Phoenix). The courtroom drama is as tense as ever—witnesses lie, evidence gets flipped last-minute, and you’ll be slamming your desk shouting "OBJECTION!" before the tutorial’s even over.

They tweaked the mechanics a bit here—Apollo’s got this "Perceive" ability where you spot nervous tics in witnesses, which adds a fun layer to cross-examinations. And the cases? They get wild fast, with twists that make you go back and rethink everything. The music’s still killer, too—that courtroom theme pumps you up when you’re cornering a witness.

If you liked the previous games, this one’s a no-brainer. If you’re new, it’s a solid starting point before diving into the trilogy. Just be ready for some ridiculous logic jumps—lawyers in this universe operate on pure anime drama, and I’m here for it.
