Murder Club is an adventure game with simulation elements. The player controls the private detective J.B. Harold, who must investigate the murder of a wealthy businessman named Bill Robbins and bring the murderer to court. The player has to do all the work a real detective would do: find clues, gather evidence, interrogate suspects, establish the motive for the crime — and in the end, make sure the case will stand up in the court. The game was initially released in Japan for the NEC PC-88 and PC-98 computers in 1986, and then ported to the MSX computer system in 1988. The title was also ported to the Famicom in Japan simply as Murder Club in 1989 and to the Sharp X68000 in 1988, which featured new digitized graphics, mouse support, and an English-language option.
