''[[http://aaonline.fr/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13387 TTT (aka The Torrential Turnabout)]]'' is an Franchise/AceAttorney-style fangame originally made by ¿Acid Rain? using the [[http://www.aaonline.fr/index.php Ace Attorney Online]] trial editor for the "Never Trust the Narrator" competition which ran all the way back in 2016. The game takes heavy inspiration from various mystery visual novels from the late 2000s and early 2010s such VisualNovel/ZeroEscape, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/Danganronpa Danganronpa]], and [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry Umineko]] and celebrates what it was like to grow up with these stories.

1. TTT does not hide the fact that it is heavily inspired by Danganronpa, Zero Escape, and the like, but you do not need to have played these games to understand or enjoy this one (though it will likely enhance your experience). And while it is ''recommended'' having played all the Ace Attorney games, TTT only spoils [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney AA1]], [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations AA3]], and [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/AceAttorneyInvestigationsMilesEdgeworth AAI1]].
2. TTT is long -- very, very long. It cannot be understated how long this case is, so pace yourself and take breaks.
3. TTT should work on any browser. Should.

* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: Zero hijacks the trial of Donald Graves and forces seven people to uncover Sheol's indentity if they want to leave the courtroom alive.
* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Judge Harper, who was murdered by Murdoch in between chapters 3 and 4, is revealed near the end of the game to have been a member of Sheol.]]
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Roland, being presumed dead for five years. In reality, he miraculously escaped from the Room and Board after the game officially ended, and was in hiding due to his mistaken belief that he'd murdered a police officer shortly thereafter.]]
* BaitAndSwitch: The game at first has the player believe it is [[spoiler:set in the Ace Attorney universe. However, when the trial begins, Mia and Edgeworth are finally shown to be taking on the appearance of Shih-na and Raymond Shields respectively. It's then explained in the next chapter that Ace Attorney is a work of fiction in this world, and the three seemingly-canon characters are fans of the series, cosplaying as its characters and using their names as pseudonyms to protect their identities.]]
* BigBad: [[spoiler:Miles Murdoch]] is the game's main antagonist, being behind NX-0, the murder of Bishop, a constant obstacle in uncovering the truth and the main figure behind Sheol.
* ABloodyMess: It's unclear if the numbers on the cupboard are actually written in blood or something else.
* CaughtMonologuing: The entire reason Sheol was unmasked was because [[spoiler:Murdoch felt the need to give an unconscious Casey a speech about his plans, unaware that he was on camera.]]
* ChekhovsGun: Roland's key in the Room and Board is a literal one. While we're told he put it to good use during the game, [[spoiler: he did eventually fire it at someone after his escape. This action directly leads Casey to deducing Harper's involvement in the incident five years later.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** During a brief section in chapter 7, Zero becomes the POV character and a model space shuttle is added to the Court Record. [[spoiler: This is the tenth key from the Room and Board that Roland used to escape.]]
** Tower occasionally makes seemingly incomprehensible, Fourth-Wall-breaking remarks during the investigation sections. [[spoiler:In reality, there actually is an audience for him to address: the Room and Board fans watching their livestream. And then there's the fact that the description for the Attorney's Badge in the court record just says "Enjoy the show."]]
--> '''Tower:''' Yo. Google "Danganronpa" if you don't know what's goin' on. Peace.
* GrandFinale: Murdoch insists the case doesn't end without a proper showdown and [[spoiler:delivers a final, desperate argument despite nobody in the room believing a word he says.]]
* INeverSaidItWasPoison: When calling Damara out on one of her lies, Mia tells her that the pipe Montclair was struck with was actually red. Once she backpedals and claims the pipe she saw was red, Mia admits the pipe's actually gray. It then becomes apparent Damara's whole testimony was a lie.
* JurisdictionFriction: Occurs between the police and the FBI when the latter take over the Room and Board investigation.
* LampshadeHanging: Murdoch is especially fond of this.
--> '''Murdoch:''' You can't be satisfied with this... this contrived plot twist! This ass pull!
* NeverFoundTheBody: The corpses of the five victims who did not escape the Room and Board were removed from the bunker after the game and were never found. [[spoiler:Significant, because unbeknownst to everyone but Sheol, Roland miraculously managed to escape with his life after the game ended.]]
* PromotedToPlayable: Almost everyone gets to present evidence at one point during the debates in chapter 7.
* StressInducedMentalVoices: Just as the trial's finally about to end, Mia subconsciously starts panicking that they might have missed something big, then proceeds to hallucinate herself in the Ace Attorney courtroom, where the prosecutors from the first four games guide her towards the full truth.
* TheyDiedBecauseOfYou: Though they were fighting for their freedom, the Room and Board survivors still feel guilt over the deaths that occurred at their hands.
--> '''Montclair:''' That game was a tragedy! Those people had families! Futures! Aspirations! And all of that was stripped away...! By us!! It was our doing!

'''Things to Note Before Playing'''
1. TTT does not hide the fact that it is heavily inspired by Danganronpa, Zero Escape, and the like, but you do not need to have played these games to understand or enjoy this one (though it will likely enhance your experience). And while it is ''recommended'' having played all the Ace Attorney games, TTT only spoils [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney AA1]], [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations AA3]], and [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/AceAttorneyInvestigationsMilesEdgeworth AAI1]].
2. TTT is long — very, very long. It cannot be understated how long this case is, so pace yourself and take breaks.
3. TTT should work on any browser. Should.
