Objection!

Objection! is a 1992 DOS game built around the dramatic world of courtroom arguments, legal reasoning, and the thrilling possibility that one badly chosen sentence can ruin your entire case. Players take part in legal proceedings, presenting arguments, examining evidence, and attempting to convince the court that their interpretation of events is the correct one. The game offers a more cerebral experience than the average action title, replacing guns and explosions with testimony, documents, and the occasional moment of righteous verbal triumph. Its appeal comes from the challenge of thinking carefully and building a convincing case. Objection! is essentially a courtroom simulator for people who enjoy winning arguments without having to stand in an actual courtroom. It is also proof that, in the right hands, paperwork can become surprisingly dramatic.
