With every AA game, I've replayed it about a year later to see how my impressions hold up.

GAA's first case still holds up fairly well. You get a surprising amount of pushback, and the case is designed to have an unfulfilling conclusion, which it does well. Jezaille slowly unraveling not out of any sort of fear of punishment, but just because she's being outwitted at the game by someone "inferior" to her really sells her arrogance. The divide between the nations is made a little too obvious by Auchi, but she really puts it into practice (it's a shame she gets completely wasted by GAA2). As far as first cases go, it's pretty alright.

The second case is so.. Dull. They try to flavor it up with Sholmes, but there isn't any high point at all, and it mostly just leaves me feeling numb and going through the motions. I remember clearing this case in one night at some absurd time the first time waiting for what felt like an obvious point to leave it off at, and it just doesn't have one. It belongs in the discussion of worst second case in the series that isn't 1-2 (the worst case in the series), not because it's bad, but because it's just not interesting or gripping at all. I think having no trial segment at all seriously hurts it.

Reminder: It has a KITTY so it's automatic top tier regardless.
