I don't know if I would call Phoenix Wright a novel, there's a lot of things to figure out. Time Hollow, on the other hand, is mostly just carting your character to wherever you're supposed to go next and there's not a whole lot of thinking involved (i didn't think so anyway)

It's true that it really depends on your definition of "novel." I think of a novel as something that largely happens itself, without much help from you - you don't really need to be ahead of the game. The Wright games are almost more puzzle oriented in my mind - you have to already know what's coming to advance the story.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
