Inside the famous DeLaude Hotel's ballroom...

This is Keiko Koike, live from the DeLaude Hotel, where the press are gathering for a big announcement from the police regarding alleged gang activity here earlier today.

Little seems to have been said thus far, but as far as Five Live News understands the situation, there has been not one, but two murders in the Statesman's Suite!

Wait... here comes one of the police now... hey! HEY, DETECTIVE!

Yeah, pal, I know what you're all sayin'. There's two dead guys upstairs and it's a real bloodbath.

And you know what, pal? This time ol' Gumshoe won't be caught out! Wohohohoho... we've got a solid suspect this time; Madame Elizé Da Silva!

The Game
Participate in a courtroom drama as you try to get to the bottom of the State vs. Da Silva trial, a case where all the evidence points to the defendant but the witnesses say differently!

- Can the city's crime organisation kill the witnesses and ensure the true criminal remains free?
- Will the Prosecution and Defense work together to learn the truth, or try to outdo one another?
- And more importantly, will Gumshoe ever learn to shave?


Rules
The rules are simple:
- The criminal is permitted one kill per evening, and must eliminate three of the four witnesses to the crime to ensure Da Silva is found guilty.
- Both the Prosecution and the Defense need to uncover the true story behind the trial, with varied narrative outcomes dependent on their cooperation and survival or lack thereof.
- As with the Ace Attorney games, there is a limit to the number of days the trial can continue for; should this limit be reached, the Judge will make a decision himself.
- Should the either the Defense or Prosecution be attacked during the night or lynched during the day, the player is out of the game, but a replacement character will be introduced for narrative reasons. Should both be incapacitated, it falls to the witnesses to bring justice to the court. No calling this trial off!

- The mafia wins if they kill/lynch three of the four witnesses.
- The town (everyone else) wins if the mafia is found.
- The Defense and/or Prosecution will recieve a special 'victory' if they are still alive at the end too.

Phases will last for 24 hours, give or take depending on real-life commitments.

The game begins with a Night Phase. Voting occurs during Day Phase, whereby the person with the greatest number of votes is called to the stand and there will be a narrative piece regarding the character they're playing. Voting is as standard (vote: X and unvote, vote: X). Abstaining and No Voting are allowed.

All talking must take part in this thread unless you have been provided with a QuickTopic link in your Role PM, whereby you are permitted to talk there. The arrested/dead are permitted to talk.

Copy/Pasting Role PMs, QuickTopic posts/links or anything else is prohibited, but that goes without saying.

This is what Phoenix Wright has to say about this game.
