1989
Nishimura Kyoutarou Mystery: Blue Train Satsujin Jiken is a mystery game released for the Nintendo Famicom in 1989. Nishimura Kyoutarou Mystery: Blue Train Satsujin Jiken ("Kyoutarou Nishimura Mystery: Blue Train Murder Case") is the first game in a series of murder mystery adventure games based on novels by famed Japanese mystery author Kyotaro Nishimura. It was developed by TOSE and published by Irem on the Famicom in Japan only. Along with other similarly themed franchises such as Tantei Jinguuji Saburo and Yamamura Misa Suspense, it invites players to solve the mystery by talking to witnesses and suspects and interacting with the environment to discover who is behind the murder. Kyotaro Nishimura's novels tend to focus on murders that occur on or around trains with this game being no exception. A body is found on a Blue Train - the name given to Japanese cross-country sleeper trains, i.e. those built to accommodate sleeping passengers - and the player character is brought in to solve the mystery.Yamamura Misa Suspense: Kyoto Hana no Misshitsu Satsujin Jiken
1989
The second in the Yamamura Misa Suspense series of murder mystery adventure games. It was published by Taito for the Famicom in Japan only. Yamamura Misa Suspense: Kyoto Hana no Misshitsu Satsujin Jiken is the second game based on the work of Japanese mystery novelist Misa Yamamura (the first being Yamamura Misa Suspense: Kyouto Ryuu no Tera Satsujin Jiken) and, like the first, concerns a murder in the picturesque Japanese city of Kyoto. As with the first game, and conversely to other Famicom adventure games around at the time, Hana no Misshitsu Satsujin Jiken has a dynamic bar of commands the player can perform; it changes to reflect what actions are currently possible for the player character in that area, so that they don't waste too much time trying every action in every location to find the next clue. These actions are also represented with symbolic icons, rather than typed out as words.Sekiryuu-ou
1989
Sekiryuu-ou
1989
An adventure game for the NES published by Sunsoft. It is based on a Japanese manga set during a historical Chinese civil war. Sekiryuou (often translated as "Red Dragon King") is a traditional Famicom adventure game from Sunsoft, in which the player controls a protagonist via a series of menus in order to solve a series of puzzles. Though Sunsoft is credited as publisher, it is unclear if the game was made in-house or contracted to another developer. The game, and the manga it is based on, depict a period of ancient Chinese history between the Qin and Han dynasties, a few decades before the Three Kingdoms era began. As expected of a transitional period, there was plenty of intrigue and conflict leading up to the change of power that future novels and mangas could draw from.Tantei Jinguji Saburo: Kiken na Futari - Kouhen
1989
The two disk "A Dangerous Duo" mystery, and the 3rd entry in the Tantei Jinguuji Saburo series. Jinguji is invited to visits a race circuit where the motorcycle racer, Okazaki, suddenly crashes, but a different racer's body is recovered at the crash site. At the same time Okazaki's wife is found dead. Tantei Jinguuji Saburo: Kiken na Futari is the third game in the Jinguuji Saburo series, known in the West as Jake Hunter. It was originally released across two Famicom Disk System disks, the second of which went on sale several months after the first. The game was eventually localized, as part of the Jake Hunter: Detective Chronicles DS compilation of his early cases, as Jake Hunter: Crash and Burn. In this game Detective Jinguuji Saburo/Jake Hunter must solve the mystery behind a sudden death during a motorcycle race. The intrigue is deepened when the body recovered is actually of a different racer.Randar no Bouken
