Evaluation

Jury is an episodic adult visual novel developed solo by Nickle3DArt. The base game (Episode 1: Before the Trial) launched on April 2, 2023, and has since been followed by two paid DLC episodes: Episode 2: The Trial of Brooke Lafferty (March 29, 2024) and Episode 3: Knives & Dark Desires (June 29, 2025). Episode 3 was delivered in two parts — Part 1 in June 2025 and a substantial Part 2 on April 11, 2026 — both included in a single DLC purchase, as the developer had originally promised. Episode 4 is firmly in development. On May 4, 2026, the developer confirmed that storyboarding for the next episode was already underway. Then on June 27, 2026 — the most recent post — the developer explicitly states "I've already started work on Ep4" as part of a feature patch announcement that also added multilingual translations, a redesigned notebook, brightness controls, and UI improvements across all existing content. The developer remains actively engaged, posting regularly and responding to community feedback. The series has followed a consistent episodic release pattern: Episode 2 arrived roughly 12 months after Episode 1, and Episode 3 (in its first part) roughly 15 months after Episode 2. Episode 4 is the next planned instalment, with the developer already past the storyboarding phase and into early production as of late June 2026.

About this game


Jury AVN is an adult, erotic story based game containing high resolution rendered images and movies.

The game tracks you as the main character being called up for a high profile trial as a member of the jury. Brooke Lafferty (American actress, model and franchise) has been arrested and accused of murdering her equally famous husband.



How the trial pans out is down to you as the player.

The first instalment of the game is titled 'Before the Trial' - Meaning, this is the time where you are entering the hotel (exclusive to jury members) and 'get to know one another'. What that means, is up to you.

Start friendships, relationships and find enemies in the first few days before the trial starts. The choices you make in this stage of the game will set up further opportunities. However, with every opportunity gained comes an opportunity missed!

Jury AVN is a game where you will need to play through multiple times to unlock all the content, see all the scenes and attract all the girls. This isn't a linear storyline where your game is the same every time you play it. There are countless combinations of ways to interact and make choices that will either end in some delicious animated scenes, or come back and bite you in the ass later in the game!


The other members of the jury are the characters you will spend most of your time with. In this first episode the focus is around getting to know each of the members, learning their likes/dislikes, understanding their personalities, and potentially starting relationships!



All the members of the jury have different looks, quirks, attitudes and personalities. Which of the girls is writing an erotic novel? Which of them works in a sex shop? Find out more about the characters at



Relationships are important in Jury. Treat a girl nicely and you will be rewarded with a relationship point. Treat them badly, then you will lose a relationship point. These points are used to determine your overall relationship status with the girls, and could just be the key to unlocking different scenes and options with them.



During your playthrough of the game, you will be required to make a number of choices. These choices are important and directly affect how your story plays out. Some of the choices will provide additional scenes or possibilities. There are no correct or incorrect choices, but you can be sure that the choices you do make will be considered by those affected.



As mentioned above, your choices and relationship development impact the content you see. Feel free to get a feel for the kind of content you can unlock in the little teaser below...






Being stuck in a hotel might sound a little like prison... However, I assure you the attentive staff are there to take very good care of you!



Not only are the staff attentive, but you'll feel very well catered for with the indoor and outdoor pools, spa, sauna, gym, restaurant, extensive gardens and on-site lake! No matter what the weather maybe, you'll find something entertaining to do in at the Rabbison Hotel!


So the question to you is...

Can you hack it on the Jury?
