Personal review

This is the second game in the long-running "Tantei Jinguuji Saburo" murder mystery adventure series. The game looks and plays like many other Japanese adventure games of its time. And the theme isn't particularly new as well. A girl gets missing, a murder happens. Gameplay consists mainly about questioning the right people at the right time. Well I feel that I have experienced all this before. The presentation is ok, with decent graphics and music and all. The game can be played with a step-by-step walkthrough but since everything is in Japanese I can't comment on the story or quality of puzzles.
