The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures/Walkthrough

In Great Ace Attorney: Adventures, you take on the role of Phoenix Wright's ancestor as he begins his career as a lawyer. The setting is the Meiji era in Japan, in which the Japanese court system is in its early stages, and the Victorian era in England, in which great detective Herlock Sholmes uses deductions to solve crimes. You must investigate crimes and defend clients in court without the assistance of modern technology, instead relying solely on careful observation, reasoning, and wit. When making decisions in the courtroom, be sure to avoid taking too many penalties, as the judge will then grow impatient and throw out your case.

If you need a quick hint, the use of Story Mode in the Chronicles release of the game walks you through solutions, at the expense of locking you out of accolades (as well as achievements/trophies in the Steam/PS4 versions of the game). To avoid losing out on accolades, refer to this guide; important directions will often be bolded. Choose to start the adventure on the main menu to begin the first episode.
