1: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder how it is?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

You might understand if you give it a try.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I lit a cigarette.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>3

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>3

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

What do you think, Yoko?

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

I liked how asking the bear for an alibi in the first game would make him angry and lead to a game over.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

I did it a little in the past.

I remember that despite this appearance, they were quite a pleasant person on the inside.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I have a memory of it being fun on my flip phone, but I don’t remember the content.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

A game that plays like a detective novel in a classic adventure style.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it interesting?

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

The scenario is relatively forceful.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love the passage of time as it flows by.

I only want to solve incidents that don’t hurt anyone.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

Jinguji Special

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s amazing that it’s been around since the Famicom.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

Lung Cancer Game

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve been slowly working on a set that includes 10 past scenario works bought on sale and 4 new releases, but I can’t finish it.

It’s fun, but

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like all four that were released on PS.

One is a compilation from the Famicom era, but…

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

I heard that even though it’s being released under a different name abroad, it hasn’t been very well received.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hardcore, or poorly said, plain.

But I think it has influenced various aspects of ADV in later years.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

It used to be a regular slicked-back hairstyle, so why did it change to that style…

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I liked how Mechanic Yoko-kun in the bonus scenario was upgraded over time.

The antenna became wireless.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

You hear hints from cigarettes and the story progresses.

I was surprised that smoking too much damaged my lungs and led to a game over.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t there a time when Yoko-kun got targeted, got angry, and immediately crashed after running out on a bike?

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The work that introduced me to Katsuya Terada.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

Was it this massive?

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

Content that feels like Yakuza, drugs, and organ trafficking.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if people are still smoking in the Reiwa era.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>27

I was busy looking for a smoking area even in my last work.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>31

There really are no smoking areas right now…

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it interesting?

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

My father is a company president, and as his name suggests, Jinjuji Saburo is the third son.

I have two older brothers who are taking over our father’s company.

Saburo hated such a predetermined life path and became a detective after studying abroad in America, as revealed in the novel.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Having the ability to fly is against the rules for the perpetrator, right?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yoko-kun seemed to become gloomy because of some sad past…

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

Katsuya Terada has completely become an artist.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

There is a detective, an assistant, and a friendly policeman, and it’s pretty much like Conan, so there are too many series and I’m wondering where to start… But even for someone without a name, there’s no need to worry.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>36

Adding a friendly Yakuza there as well.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Is it just as time passes? The fourth installment of FC.

I like that.

It’s not flashy, but it really resonates.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

There’s no bad guy just passing by, and nobody dies, so it feels quite unique, right?

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

The smoking area has been removed from the convenience store due to COVID and hasn’t been reinstated.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first work has tricks that are too superhuman.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>39

Therefore, the script was significantly revised in the remake.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>44

Changing the culprit is a bit…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ones that were released on the original PlayStation (ports of past titles and new titles) are consistently good and fun.

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Jazz-style background music is nice.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I wonder how far I got.

I still liked the end of the dream the most.

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The first work is too rough, but from the second one onward, the format is already complete, which is amazing.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

The one with the highest level of completion is “At the End of the Dream.”

It’s a game that just enjoys the atmosphere of jazz, tobacco, and alcohol.

Despite that, Jinguji changes his character quite a bit during the interviews…

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

I haven’t been able to play several new works that have been released on feature phones.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s about time that young people who don’t know what rolled cigarettes are start entering society…

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t pursue it anymore, but I’m only concerned about my relationship with Yoko.

I know that we’ve reached the point of calling each other by our names, but are we getting married or not?

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

What can be done on Steam has a bad reputation…

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are we going straight into the new chapter?

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

I liked detective adventure games that came out around ’98 (like DC Connection and The Golden Compass), so I also enjoyed the PS game Kamijuuji.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the novel version, I don’t want to put Yoko in danger.

It was quite a surprising development where it ended with a breakup.

It seems that it is being treated as if it were not handled in a side story.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

I only know that Data East was a company that made games with a unique and weird atmosphere because the generations are different, but is this serious?

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>55

The first work is quite strange.

From the second work onward, it’s much more proper, but suddenly the kung fu man goes on a rampage.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>55

It occasionally has comical elements, but overall it has a hard-boiled feel.

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Prism of Eyes is great.

You can get 14 of them for under 1000 yen during the sale.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since Jinguji feels a sense of indebtedness, it seems that things won’t progress unless Yoko pushes down first.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you leave Yoko-kun alone, he will start investigating on his own…

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was just a story about people dying, but it turns out that’s not the case, as I realized while watching “Prism something.”

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>61

As time passes, there are no dead, and it feels heartwarming with human emotions.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

The recent one that came out on the 3DS was quite interesting.

The ones that were released later as fixed versions were poorly received.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

The scene of the tailing in the unfinished report left an impression on me like a nightmare.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>63

Do we need the gameplay elements of the stalking part and the final chase part?

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

Fumoffu!

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like the story and setting are both connected and not connected at the same time…

Maybe

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

The opening with the angels flying is really scary.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>68

Is this the end of the dream?

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>71

Maybe that.

I thought it was a horror game all along.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>77

It’s not horror, but it’s an incredibly heavy story.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

The design of female characters changes drastically from work to work.

Kasumi-san can be super erotic sometimes.

73: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I am faster than anyone! I like it.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>73

(accident)

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

Whether it’s due to nostalgia or the live performance BGM recorded since the PlayStation era.

The cheap BGM of the Famicom is more memorable.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

Recently, Yoko from the Mystery Incident Diary has become super cute…

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

Speaking of which, that angel doll in the opening wasn’t related to the main story at all.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

That’s something that Katsuya Terada often draws.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

The angel and the girl lying on the ground won’t appear at the end of the dream…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>81

There is a sense of Terada’s worldview.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

That OP is not a metaphor for Jinguji’s nightmare… but rather Terada Katsuya’s music video.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have published as many as eight novels.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

The harpy that appears in BUSIN, designed by Katsuya Terada, had a face that looked like its eyes were crushed too.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to do it again at the end of my dream, but I can’t do it on the current machine…

Why aren’t they including this in the prologue?

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>87

If we record it, Daedalus will become even more miserable due to the difference in quality!

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

There were a lot of them during the DS era, right?

I have memories of it being released quite a bit even on flip phones.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like it because it has a good gameplay even while the lights are on.

I guess the PS era was the golden age, huh?

91: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I woke up sleeping on the sofa after a heavy drink at the detective agency…

Is the super beautiful secretary Yoko-kun at the office again sleeping on the sofa…?

Please rest in bed for your health, while also being concerned.

I drink the morning coffee that Yoko made for me and light a cigarette for the first time in the morning…

This game is perfect for those who yearn for such a lifestyle.

93: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>91

Sounds good…

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>91

But I don’t earn enough to drink good sake like Jinguuji…

I want to drink Camus too!

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember being surprised when I read several Japanese hard-boiled novels, having developed an interest in hard-boiled fiction at Jinguji, and finding that they were all full of older men’s desires.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>92

Jinguuji is a man who loves alcohol and cigarettes, and although he’s sharp-minded, he’s also physically strong—someone that men aspire to be like…

That’s fine like that…

95: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

If it’s Marlboro, I can smoke it!

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

Well, I completely started smoking Marlboro because of Saburo Jinguuji’s influence.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

As a result of this, I admired the Mini Cooper.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel sad that Bear is closer in age than Jinguji.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t help but have the image of the bold tricks from the first generation.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

Few have played Daidalos: The Awakening of Golden Jazz.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>100

I think it’s a bit awful for something like this to come out from the writer of “The End of the Dream.”

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I drink coffee and smoke a cigarette first thing in the morning, I always end up with an upset stomach, so I can’t be hard-boiled…

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>101

His name is Nameless.

A down-and-out guy smoking a cigarette while struggling to chat on a run-down internet bulletin board, ending up with an upset stomach.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ll do it after Prism of Eyes is finished…

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

That aside, I want to stop by my regular bar run by a beautiful sister duo and have some Camus.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

Saburo has money, right?

I’m not really doing detective work.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

My home is very thick.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>106

That said, I probably haven’t used my family’s money to maintain the office.

Using it makes the hard-boiled feeling quite diminish…

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

I was in such dire straits that I couldn’t even afford to buy coffee as time passed by.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

He’s the heir of the Jinguji conglomerate, but…

But I’m not sponging off my parents, that’s not very hard-boiled.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was surprised that new works were still being released until 2018.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>107

Has it really been 7 years already…?

109: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>107

I want a collection of remakes or new works featuring the smartphone stuff soon.

113: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s too pathetic and hilarious to be pretending to be hard-boiled while depending on my parents.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like it’s a good opportunity now that the market for indie games is thriving.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

Once I receive the payment, I’m going to immediately buy a big desk and then get scolded by Yoko…

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

The DS ones are going for a premium price.

I wonder if Ark won’t be ported.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder how much the office rent is now.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

I never thought that “The Mystery of the Disappearing in the Okhotsk” and the Famicom Detective Club would have new releases in the Reiwa era.

I wonder if the volume layer of the game is from the baby boomer generation.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

How many hours does it take for one out of 14?

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>121

The app version is a short game that takes just a little over 4 hours, so it’s something you can easily play.

It’s a new release, so it has a lot of content, and if you’re interested, buying it won’t be a loss.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like there was a strong sense of getting lost along the way because of the close ties with the Yakuza.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s good when you enter the boss’s room without greeting the young guys and end up getting beaten up and game over.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve been doing it roughly since the end of the dream, just in case.

None of them leave much of an impression of the incident…

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>126

Well, it’s not so much about tricks or anything; it’s truly a diligent detective job that involves searching in various ways on foot.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it became a standard to ask the Yakuza when in trouble, I have a bit of a feeling of uncertainty.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I read Jiro Taniguchi’s “The Incident Company,”

I feel like it’s the original story behind Jinguji.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it seems there’s a side to the Shinjuku area that’s closely linked to the Yakuza…

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Portopia Serial Murder case was also remade the year before last.

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

Money! Violence! SEX! It may be a bit of a peculiar type because it’s hard-boiled without much feeling (it’s SF), but it might be fun to read the legacy of Light Jean.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want them to make a new work in 3D like Detroit: Become Human.

136: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>133

Who holds the rights now? Is it still with Ark?

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

I got into the game after playing the demo included in a PS magazine at the end of my dreams…

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

The most memorable trick is that the culprit is in the first flying one.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re going to revive it this time, we should definitely employ Kazutaka Kodaka.

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a feeling that detectives can’t even make a name for themselves in the underworld.

However, even just professional relationships cannot maintain a clean image in this day and age.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s Shinjuku, how about a collaboration with Yakuza?

Well, it’s unlikely that they would do something like that.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t the indoor cultivated vegetable by Deco a success?

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>142

No, I failed.

I was also getting involved with strange machines.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

Jinguji is more of a suspense genre than a mystery.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>143

Even though “Dōkoku” and “REVIVE” have a high level of difficulty…

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the latter half, the mystery-solving element is 90% of the mysterious case files…

Also searching for passwords… that’s unrelated to the main story…

148: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even if it’s a high difficulty in ADV, I’m not really that happy about it.

149: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Is it at the end of the dream that Yoko-kun’s boyfriend does drugs and rapes Yoko-kun?

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>149

Was there something so direct?

Well, since he’s a drug addict, there probably was dating abuse.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

I also like the Tōdō Ryūnosuke series.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

Worried about the end of the dream…

152: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still clearly remember only the introduction of the ending at the end of the dream.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>152

At the end of the dream, morning comes…

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you want to deduce, go play Obra Dinn.

Detective games mostly involve playing detective novels, for better or for worse.

155: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I also liked Cross Detective Story alongside this one… It’s such a shame that a sequel didn’t come out.

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>155

The company was making Jinguji.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know if that’s the case for everything, but the Jinguji I did only checked whether the choices remembered the content of the incident exactly, which didn’t boost my motivation.

159: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If I had cleared the bear’s part at the end of the dream, I would have completed the game.

It seems there was a bug where a flag got stuck halfway, and I was stuck.

I wonder if it’s a matter of order since there were other people who reported the same.

160: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m getting motivated to do it just because Daedalus is being criticized so much.

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder which one comes first, City Hunter or the other?

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>161

Isn’t it different as a comparison target?

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

I liked being able to clear everything in a round-robin style, so I stopped playing the last one on PS1…

164: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Both are Shinjuku Private Eyes, so it’s not wrong to consider them as the target, but…

I don’t think it’s something to compare whether it’s later or earlier.

165: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like Shinjuku Shark or something like that.

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was interesting that a new title came out on the 3DS after such a long time.

It’s just that it was quite short.

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

The criminal can’t really go for an outrageous scale, so smuggling is about as far as they can manage.

168: Japan Otaku Reviews

I bought and read “A Shining Future,” and it was interesting.

I like the atmosphere of “Before the light goes out.”
