Okay, this game is so fucking great.

I played it over a rainy weekend in the evenings while my wife was doing night shift. It was like, chilling at points, and the characters are so great.

10/10 game.

Not sure how much of a detective game it really is but EVE burst error has both of its protags be detectives (one's a private detective and the other works for the goverment, though), and there is a quiz at the end about who you think committed each murder depicted in the game. The game's main gimmick, though, is that you can switch between the protags at just about any point in the story, either to see their side of the story or to solve a puzzle, like cooperating to hack into a database.

Best and easiest way to play the game is through Asenheim's web port here: https://tss.asenheim.org/eve-burst-error.html
You can choose between the PC-98 or Sega Saturn art and also use the PC-98 music which I strongly recommend.

>Be it retro or new, it doesn't matter.
This board is for the discussion of classic, or "retro" games. Glad I could help.

The Ace Attorney series might be worth a look.

try to check Tex Murphy's game

I think by now two Detective Conan games have been translated. I'd check those out.

The Tantei Saburo Jinguji games are great. If your moonspeak is rusty there's a translated compilation called Jake Hunter Detective Story: Memories of the Past on the NDS.

Can also recommend the J.B. Harold games. Murder Club and Manhattan Requiem are available on iOS.

I really want to try these out, but I know nothing of moon runes. These look awesome.

This looks pretty cool, it helps me to know all those lesser known games out there. Thanks!

I don't know if any of you could help me out, but I remember that someone posted a picture of a screenshot of a game where there was two detectives in a car talking. It looked like a SNES game, so maybe someone knows what game it was?

Nightshade on NES.

The Police Quest series

I played this game directly off the heels of playing the original Phoenix Wright, Policenauts, then Snatcher back to back. It was like having a mystery game orgasm.

Last thing I played detective related was DejaVu on NES.
Fun little game.

Any good Sherlock Holmes games with a classic 19th centuary setting?

>>3822316
There's a funny Famicom game of Sherlock Holmes were you can kick the shit out of everyone

Policenauts?

Not retro but on DS you will find more game.
Hotel dusk/Last window/Flower, Sun, Rain/Another code and other.
