Heck if I know.
Phoenix Wright isn't really a visual novel, since it's a lot more interactive than most are.

As far as Umineko's VN goes, it does drag on. But honestly, intake as much as you can. A well-known theory on writing is that every word in a story is there for a reason. In short, there is no unimportant scene - especially in a mystery story, when you see a scene it is shown for a specific reason and shouldn't be treated as insignificant.
