Internet Court is a short and sweet FMV game about a specious Internet court. It's a well written and witty parody of the Japanese Phoenix Wright and similar games.
There are four different cases to handle, ranging from suing people for being unfriended to writing bad fan fiction. Player interaction is choosing from a number of options, or finding issues in evidence. The choices are not timed, and though the wrong choices can end a case prematurely the game then allows you to try again.
The game simulates a web meeting, and allows you to fast forward through the FMV sequences. You can replay any of the cases independently. The background music is unobtrusive, similar to arcade games of yore. The game also includes outtakes and other extra material.
The game ran without any problems under Windows 11. It feels like it's all done by family and friends who are really enjoying themselves doing it.
Pleasant lunacy.
