RIP FLASH :(
Reviews for "Socrates Jones: Pro Philo"
so. slow. to. start.
y is the opening tutorial SOOO LOOONG?
I'm not saying its a bad game
I CANT SAY THAT BECAUSE I RAN OUT OF PACIENCE WITH BILLY THE TWAT B4 I COULD EVEN PLAY!
What? Now do not take offense in this I can understand you devoted a fair amount of time on this and I can see that but I have to review it as a flash game and that is what I have to do.
Gameplay: I can take it as an adventure game but the point is obscure. In the long run all you have to do is spam the 3 questions on each sentence and then try the arguments you will collect in each sentence again. Even if you lose you will eventually win and there are no medals or achievements to make you do anything but the above.
Story: Humorous and nice, the characters are easy to sympathize with and I would want to give more stars just because of them.
Personal Note: Philosophy. By making this you and everyone who plays it supposedly knows the meaning of all these arguments? Now I can't blabber on about what is right or wrong but making everything as pictured in the game so steadfast ruins the immersion feeling. Some others would see it as you presenting a wiser-than-thoy flash developer trying to "enlighten" us stupid internet babies which is not the case but is what the message that goes across is in the end.
I honestly do not know how this should be called a game maybe call it an app or something but it definitely isn't a game.
Boring, doesn't have the mass appeal of the series that inspired it.
This game is amazing.
I love Ace Attorney, and the fact this is all about philosophies and morals makes it even more incredible. :)
I guess you never face off against Friedrich Nietsczhe because you already adapt his philosophy for being an Ubermensch by believing there is no true answer?
(Sorry if that counts as spoilers. :( I won't reveal who the final boss is though, it's a secret. ^^;)
Erm, I'm not sure what else to say here. :( I guess I love using logic and figuring things out because it makes me feel smart. XD Though sometimes I get stuck for a while. ^^; Sometimes when I finally figure it out though, it's like, I should have came up with that answer all along. XD
I love the dynamic between the dad and his teenage daughter too, whether it's sad, heartwarming, funny, etc. ^^;
Hearing about philosophers in school seems kind of interesting, I wonder if I should have taken a class like that if I was able to, or something like Psychology. :? I think I would have if I saw it so they probably didn't have it on my high school and I don't remember learning about it. :( I guess they might have these things in College/University though so I could take it later, if I ever make it there...
Sorry for getting all emotional. ^^;
Anyways, even though there's only a handful of characters to face off against, the game still seems to take a few hours to beat, but that's good, it gives it a lot of depth for a flash game. :)
I wish there were more Ace Attorney games. <3 Whether it's actually like Ace Attorney with cases or another game on some interesting topic like philosophy...
Thank you for making this. :3
