Game Background

Do I Have A Right? is an extraordinary 3D educational lawyer game that immerses us in the legal world. Our mission will be to open a law office and ally ourselves with several lawyers to advise clients who come to us for help.

The mechanics are tricky. First, the client will tell us what has happened to him. Then we will have to tell them whether or not they have any rights. If we believe that they have the right to go to court, we will have to look for the corresponding article.

Of course, in order to be able to help you, we must have lawyers who are experts on the subject. As we play, we will be able to hire new lawyers and they will develop new legal skills.

Features

Evaluate constitutional rights claims

Determine whether potential clients have a protected right.

Argue cases using the Bill of Rights

Apply constitutional amendments to win cases.

Access expanded accessibility and language options

This game is fun and helps me learn some of the rights in the bill of rights but is also entertaining while doing it. It is also simple and easy to learn how to play. However some of the scenarios aren't realistic and most likely wouldn’t happen in real life. Although most of the scenarios are likely it seems that they are very repetitive and some are just stupid and unrealistic. Its very simple and all you have to do is answer if something is a right or not and then send them to court about it. I would recommend it to other people because it is entertaining for your first two games but then it just starts getting boring because it is always the same things and court cases. I think they should improve this by making it have a larger variety of cases and make it so you can have more lawyers. 

Hello, I love this game. I like learning about the amendments and running my own little law firm. But, I don’t like how there is a certain amount of days to the game. I want to be able to keep running my law firm instead having to do it all over again. But everything else, is great. Thanks!

Could we possibly get an extend the game other than have the 7 days and then have to repeat the game again . We should have a choice of weather or not we want a new game! Other than that the game is GREAT! It’s so addictive I’ve been playing it for some days continuously I really love it and I’ve learned so much in like 2 days ! Fun game!

If we are interested in US law, the developers offer us a fantastic resource to learn about the laws and the American legal system. With this new adventure they invite us to learn about our rights and whether we could turn to the courts for justice.
