This courtroom drama swaps the modern legal system for Meiji-era Japan and Victorian England, introducing a compelling ensemble cast.

What sets it apart are the "Dance of Deduction" sequences where you collaborate with the eccentric Herlock Sholmes to piece together the truth, adding a welcome layer of interactivity to the formula.
