Are there any good detective/mystery solving games out there? I was playing the Ace Attorney games and I'm itching for some mystery

I'm going to play dark auction but I have no idea how good it is ; I suggest Murders on the Yangtze River.

I always see this recommended with 24k reviews but it isn't in English. I really should have learned Japanese by now I guess but man I wonder if its actually good to get that many reviews

I fucking hate this series so goddamn much now. I thought Idolzzz would be a one-off bad season, but no. Toei have no fucking idea what they're doing anymore.

1. No.
2. The success of Ace Attorney prompted a host of similar series like Hotel Dusk, Touch Detective, Trace Memory and Professor Layton. There's definitely more, but I'd recommend those to an AA fan.

Surprised nobody's posted that yet, seems like an obvious recommendation.
