About Game

Battle for justice in an anime-themed world as Nina Aquila, defence attorney and bona fide Legal Eagle! Nina Aquila: Legal Eagle is an anime-themed graphic adventure game, in which you play the role of a defence attorney. Fledge City is in crisis, and it's up to Nina Aquila and her friends to make sure justice prevails! A fully-SFW graphic adventureTake the role of a new defence attorneyGet to know a cast of quirky charactersDefend your client in court! The game currently contains 1 case, which acts as a tutorial, and is approx. 45-minutes to an hour in length. With a tone that mixes crime with a light-hearted feel, a cast of quirky characters and a compelling story, NALE is intended as a homage to the Phoenix Wright franchise, but should appeal to all fans of anime & graphic adventures. Premise In each chapter, Nina takes on the case of a client who has been charged with a major crime, who she believes to be innocent. To prove this, she and her friends journey to different areas around Fledge City, gathering evidence, before going to court to fight for her client's cause. Freshly qualified as a defence attorney, Nina's first few cases go well... But when her mentor is imprisoned for a crime she didn't commit, her career becomes a casualty of a secret war... A war that, unknown to Nina, is connected to her own past. A great game is being played for the heart of the city by the ruthless and powerful, but right now, Nina doesn't even know who is playing, much less the rules. She will need to trust her friends and forge new alliances if she is to fight for justice and uncover the truth. Current state of the project NALE is mid-development. The case presented in this first version of the game is a courtroom tutorial with a straightforward setup and courtroom battle, and should take approximately 1 hour to complete. The next step is to allow players (hopefully you!) to try the game, and see if people want more! This first case is offered for free/name-your-own-price. Funds raised will initially go towards the unique assets required to create the future cases, with a long-term goal of replacing all the visual aspects of the game with unique character and environment assets. Future Plans Future episodes will be sold in an episodic manner, where each episode will form a case. Future cases will include... Exploration of crime scenes Conversations with witnesses and NPCs An explorable version of Fledge City Minigames and puzzles Future cases will be based around unique themes that serve as pastiche or parody of popular anime genres and geeky activities; for example, a murder at an underground club for players of a collectible card game, or a theft that will see Nina and her friends get involved in illegal mountain road tōge racing!
