The unique scenario, in which high school students with top-notch talents gathered from all over the country engage in a colosseum in a closed space, is depicted in an investigation part in which they gather testimony and evidence while interacting with their friends, and in a class trial part in which they engage in a two or three-way argument with their opponents, and the originality of the game and its unexpected developments have been praised by many game users. The originality of the game and its unexpected developments drew much praise from game users.

The series has since been adapted into a series of four titles, three numbered titles and one gaiden title, for PS4, PS Vita, PC, and other platforms. The series is also very popular overseas, and has shipped more than 3.5 million units worldwide.
