Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Hints
When did the switchover occur, and why?
1 of 13: The key to working this out is in thinking each possibility through, and working out what COULDN'T have happened.
2 of 13: The cards could not have been switched before the murder, as the game was still being played, and the victim would have noticed.
3 of 13: The cards could not have been switched during the murder -- it's rather likely that the killer and victim were a little pre-occupied at this point.
4 of 13: This leaves only one solution. The cards were switched after the murder had taken place.
5 of 13: You will now need to decide who replaced it.
6 of 13: Use the same process of elimination.
7 of 13: Why would Phoenix Wright have replaced the card -- he won the hand.
8 of 13: This leaves Olga Orly, or a third party.
9 of 13: Remember that Olga Orly was the dealer for this game -- and an experienced one at that.
10 of 13: Would she make such a simple mistake as to put a card of the wrong color into the deck?
11 of 13: It's very unlikely.
12 of 13: This leaves one, equally unlikely, possibility.
13 of 13: Someone else changed the card over -- and who that was we will find out shortly!
