Name: | Jantei Monogatari |
Author/Vendor: | Telnet Japan |
Released: | 1991 |
Type: | Tile game |
Language: | Japanese |
Premise: | You play the role of a private investigator whose latest case takes him to an exclusive all-girls school. The story is advanced by playing a tile game with the various characters, or you can skip the story and just play the tile game itself. |
Impressions: | If you are ignorant of Japanese, if you are not a otaku, if you don't care for tile games, or some combination of the three, then you'd better skip this one. It's a shame, really, because this has some of the best anime cinemas I've ever seen in a MegaDrive game, and the story is actually pretty good given the constraints of the format. If only they had made a true RPG out of this one...sigh.... |
Variations: | This game is commonly referred to as Clock Tower due to the opening cinema. It is not to be confused with the game of the same name for the SNES. |
Recommended Emu: | Genecyst X |
