Hokkaidou Rensa Satsujin: Okhotsk ni Kiyu (FC)

Hokkaidou Rensa Satsujin: Okhotsk ni Kiyu

Platform: Famicom Year: 1987 Developer: Pax Softonica

Hokkaidou Rensa Satsujin: Okhotsk ni Kiyu (北海道連鎖殺人 オホーツクに消ゆ) is the second part of the Yuuji Horii Mysteries trilogy of adventure games released in the early 80's on the NEC PC-6001 and NEC PC-88 and later ported to numerous computers and video game consoles. The game has never been translated into English through any means whatsoever, although an episode of GameCenter CX was dedicated to this episode and has been translated. Even with the ability to read Japanese, the game is nothing too spectacular, just your usual "people-are-dying-find-the-murderer" plot with a blackjack minigame, spa strip scene and coal mine rescue.

Music

Like many earlier releases on the Famicom, Okhotsk ni Kiyu has its fair share of screechy or bland tunes that render some of the soundtrack completely unlistenable. However, it also has a few songs that are incredibly catchy and can quickly get stuck in your head, especially for those playing the game that get to listen to them over and over while trying to figure out what to do to proceed.
