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.
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.
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.
The second NES Pachio-kun game, about a sentient pachinko ball that loves playing pachinko. It was published by Coconuts Japan.
Pachiokun 2 is the sequel to Pachiokun, and was also published by slot machine manufacturer Coconuts Japan as well as developed by contract developers Marionette and C Dream. As with the first game, the goal is to help a sentient pachinko ball named Pachio-kun bankrupt a series of pachinko parlors and liberate all his miniature brethren from their flashy mechanical gulags.
The game introduces Pachio-kun's wife, presumably named Pachio-chan. If she's upset about her husband's gambling addiction, she never shows it.
A detailed graphic adventure game that has a very high end interactive fiction storyline. This game uses a "point and shoot" interface that uses your mouse.
You control a knight with a sword that can swing high or low, and you fight creatures that can hit you or shoot things at you. Along the way you gain a shield that can block projectiles and can increase your armor/sword strength by going into rooms (including secret rooms) to collect powerups. You are usually limited to a single background in Family BASIC. Fisraduth uses darkness to hide portions of the background to give you the feeling of multiple rooms. There are even hidden, secret rooms.

Armed only with a Colt .45, a Hertz rent-a-car, and your last six-pack, can you save the day and rescue "Unwholesome Olson"?
