The game has a slow start and many options come with time

Many side effects are added gradually. New mini-games, friends, additional investigations - all of them are systematically added to the following chapters of the campaign. Most of the options open only towards the end of the game. However, there are so many side effects that it's best to use the extra content regularly - if you wait until the end of the game, the extra content can overwhelm you.

Side quests give a lot of money

From time to time you can participate in the so-called side cases - optional investigations that give a lot of money and offer a mini-story (they work like side quests). Some cases will appear on the streets of the city, however, you can go to the main character's house, Genda's Law Office and the Tender Bar to get special cases.

You can use items during fights

The first chapters of the game are quite simple, but after a while the level of difficulty increases significantly. There are many enemies, they become stronger and are accompanied by even stronger opponents. You can use healing items during fights. Use your phone, go to the item tab and heal. You can assign some Quick Access Toolbar items to speed up the whole process.

Buy supplies in the city

After you complete a few side missions, you will have a lot of money. You can spend them on healing items like Tohughness Z, Staminan X, or food items like Oden or Sushi Set. Over time, you will also gain access to extracts that improve our hero in battle. Gather materials for more difficult fights.

Severe wounds and treatment

Normal wounds can be healed with food in the restaurant or snacks from the inventory. However, your character may receive serious wounds that will block a certain part of your health. When an enemy is extremely strong and uses katanas or firearms for example, that enemy can damage Yagami so much that you can't heal above a certain level of your health bar. You must go to the Moroboshi clinic to buy kits or get treated by a doctor.

Fighting in the streets

There are no vehicles to get around in Judgment - you must explore the city on foot or by taxi. Thus, almost every step you take will be interrupted by a group of enemies. You can fight them to gain some experience or ignore them and keep running - the enemies will disappear after a while. A good option is, for example, to talk to an NPC - talking will reset enemies.

friends in the city

You will find many friends in the city - these NPCs may have mini-quests for us or are waiting for you to complete their requests. Some of them require you to talk to them several times, others may need a special item - if we reach the maximum level of intimacy with them, we get special bonuses. Some friends will help us in battle, others will offer unique items for sale or take part in the EX promotion.

Save experience points and buy...

… Boost Attack, Boost Combo Speed ​​and Boost Health. These abilities are very useful in combat. Try to reach level 2 of all these abilities as quickly as possible. After that, you can focus on getting new moves and special skills. Photo Op Sense is also useful - it speeds up the process of taking photos in missions that require you to take this action.

Are you stuck? Check case files

While there are many missions with indicators that show you where to go, some missions require you to figure out what to do next. If there is no symbol on the map, go to the case files and read the protagonist's commentary. Sometimes it is necessary, for example, to read the address from a business card and go to the specified location, etc.

Choices and wrong decisions don't matter

From time to time you will have a conversation where you can choose a proof, a dialogue line, etc. While it may seem like our decisions are important, don't worry - the choice doesn't matter and the game will help you. You are on the right track. Thus, you can make mistakes and choose the most humorous options for dialogue.
