Summary

Satsui no Kaisou: Soft House Satsujin Jiken is a menu‑driven graphic adventure that never made it beyond Japan’s Famicom market. You play as a young investigator tasked with untangling a string of murders inside a software company, and every move feels like a careful dance with time. The game forces you to be in the right place at the right moment – the company’s president gives you just three in‑game days before the police are called in, so you’re constantly weighing which clues to chase and which conversations to prioritize. Clue‑gathering works the classic Famicom way: you examine locations, talk to a cast of quirky staff members, and keep a mental (or on‑screen) ledger of what you’ve learned. As the deadline looms, more employees fall victim, and the pressure ramps up. The ending isn’t set in stone; after you finally point the finger at the killer, the writer appears to hand you a final chance, and the game branches into several conclusions based on the choices you make afterward.
