The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles Reviews
I understand visual novels aren’t for everyone, but it’s hard to find a reason not to suggest The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles to even the most ardent visual novel skeptics. With an excellent story, fun characters, and an amazing soundtrack, it really is an excellent game well worth the time spent playing. It does feel a bit derivative of other games in the series, and whether that is good or not depends on how much one enjoys the other games. Still, if you have not had a chance to enjoy the world of Ace Attorney before, I highly recommend picking up The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles for the Nintendo Switch and giving this legal gem a try.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is more of what you love, but with a different coat of paint. If you aren’t a fan of the franchise, or visual novels in general, I doubt this collection will be able to change your mind in any way. But if you’re a series veteran, you’ll be in for one hell of a ride. It’s the best looking title in the franchise so far, and it features some of the most memorable (and ridiculous) cases and characters Capcom has ever managed to come up with for the series.
Franchise fans should be psyched to get the two Great Ace Attorney games, and in a polished package. It won’t change your mind about these titles one way or the other, unless you have a strong feeling about the period-piece setting. But it does what it sets out to do.
Doing prequels for any well-established series is always very tricky but The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles manages to not only be very true to the franchise’s spirit prequel but also stand on its own as an exciting mystery adventure/visual novel videogame.

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles will likely be as remembered for the journey it took to even be officially released in English as the journey of Ryunosuke Naruhodo himself – and both are worth it. The sheer grandiosity, excellent writing, and overall package make it one for the ages
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is a title that could have been outstanding if some of the new mechanics had been given one more spin and the start of the game sped up a bit. In short, a fabulous game with some wery small weak points.

There’s enough juicy meat on the bone here for you to enjoy for quite a while, even though in terms of replayability there’s little to come back to once you get through all the cases. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles shows off the amazing talent and creativity of a series that’s in a genre of its own among visual novel games, really. Inherent faults and all, Ace Attorney is absolutely the type of game you’d want to have on whatever system you decide to pick it up for.
Two great titles that fans of the Phoenix Wright saga cannot miss, despite not being translated into spanish language. The adaptation to a desktop platform and a single screen has been done efficiently and without losing any characteristic feature of the franchise. Highly recommended to those who love visual novels and research, totally discouraged for those who do not know how to defend themselves well in English or Japanese.
