''[[http://jayisgames.com/games/socrates-jones-pro-philosopher/ Socrates Jones: Pro Philosopher]]'' is a VisualNovel by Connor Fallon and Valeria Reznitskaya; as the title alone should indicate, it draws heavy, '''heavy''' inspiration from the ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' series.
The titular Socrates Jones is an accountant who lives in New York with his daughter, Ariadne; every Jones except for Socrates himself is a huge philosophy buff, whereas he himself just doesn't get what the fuss is all about. A car accident and a cosmic misfile, however, land him and Ari in the Intelligible Realm, the philosophers' afterlife, and his only ticket out is to answer the ancient question of what constitutes the perfect definition of morality. To come up with an answer, Socrates has to debate with a handful of famous philosophers.
