The [[NoExportForYou game was not released outside of North America]]. The game itself was based on the gameplay used in the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' franchise.

The game takes on five cases with Harvey Birdman as the defense lawyer. Like the Ace Attorney games, Harvey must examine crime scenes, interview witnesses in court and clear their names during trials.

----
!!The game has examples of the following tropes:

* TheCameo: A ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' character is hidden in each chapter of the video game. Finding the scenes where they are present unlocks bonus content in the menu:
** Guile is a member of the jury whose hair is accidentally set on fire by Harvey to disprove a lighter as fake evidence.
** Dhalsim shows up randomly in Harvey's office levitating after said location was robbed clean.
** Zangief appears as Dum Dum's muscle in jail if Harvey refuses to take a phone number from him, basically enforcing ButThouMust.
** Artwork of Ryu from the ''Alpha'' movies is used on one of Peanut's fake [=IDs=], identifying him as "Noboyuki Johnson."
** Chun-Li (in her classic sprites from ''II'') shows up at the fake retirement party Falcon throws Harvey.
** ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' shows up [[RuleOfThree thrice]] through the whole game: as a game cartridge, as an icon on Peanut's desktop, and as an arcade machine in the Birdcage which plays the intro to ''New Generation'' if examined.
