We started making DI purely for the love of the game - the most exciting thing now is seeing just how many people have an appetite for the same kinds of games that we do! https://t.co/njlSEuodBc

A woman vanishes without a trace on a cross-country train. The catch? Nobody on board remembers her ever existing in the first place - nobody, except for you. Uncover the story in this mystery...

A lot has changed since we started developing our game over 3 years ago... Nintendo made a new Famicom Detective Club. Every Ace Attorney game is now in English. Another Code was revived, fueling desire for Kyle Hyde remakes. People want ADV games, and we want to make them 🫡

Most of my fondest memories with adventure games involve sitting with my DS or Switch on cold fall/winter nights under a nice, warm blanket. Which is why I'm so glad we're releasing in November 🍂 I'm looking forward to playing our game that way soon, and we hope you are too!

The demo for our DS-era-evoking mystery adventure game just got a huge update 👁️ A strange death in a hotel turns a study abroad trip on its head in our game's first chapter. Now's the best time to try it in advance of our release on November 26th! Changelog below ⬇️

Finally played through Dear me, I was... and absolutely loved it. Makes use of some light adventure game mechanics to punctuate a very moving story about an ordinary life, with stunning art direction from @kanayan2929. Inspires me to want to learn how to draw more than ever 😭

Nintendo of America CEO Satoru Shibata has said in the past adventure games are his favorite. Games like Famicom Detective Club, Ace Attorney and Professor Layton are his thing! He's dabbled in cosplay...

For anyone confused by this news, Banshee's Last Cry (Kamaitachi no Yoru) is a legendary "sound novel" that popularized novel-style video games in Japan. I actually just published a video all about the franchise's history if you would like to learn more. https://t.co/8N2B3JUW5M
We're running a special collab to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the landmark visual novel, Banshee's Last Cry! 😱 A brand-new scenario will be available in World Tour on October 15! Play it if you dare… MUAHAHA!

"Our goal was to tell an earnest and interesting story through command menu gameplay, so if people feel any genuine emotions when they play, we’ll all be very happy." 🫡 If you want to know more about our game and team, check this interview we did with UK Anime ⬇️

Ace Attorney 1 is genuinely a monumental work of great localization for me. To have managed to keep the writing to be this snappy, witty and funny in a game both full of humor mixed with some of the most riveting emotional drama is a miracle. Everything could have gone wrong

The main inspiration behind our gameplay style was the Famicom Detective Club series, which uses a command menu interface in a fascinating way to create puzzles out of conversations and express the personalities of characters. See this thread I wrote last year ⬇️
With the new Famicom Detective Club releasing a demo soon, let's take a minute to talk about the original games’ approach to ADV design, and why I think their old-school style of command-select gameplay is so fun, if you approach them with the right mindset… 🧵

Great interview with two members of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney's original localization team. No localization was more successful at bringing a Japanese ADV close to the mainstream in the west. We sure wouldn't be here without it, so I'm very grateful 🥹
