If you thoroughly enjoyed the long-awaited localizations of the Famicom Detective Club duology then you might be interested in this all-new mystery inspired by those classics.
Retro Mystery Club Vol. 1: The Ise-Shima Case first hit the Nintendo Switch in Japan back in 2019 but now it’s getting a localization from Shinyuden. Fully taking after the original Famicom mystery games, Retro Mystery Club is filled with 8-bit pixel art with characters designed by the regular Famitsu artwork contributor Kiyokazu Arai.
You’ll be able to try to crack this case yourself in English when Retro Mystery Club Vol. 1 launches in North America and Europe on August 24th for $9.90 / €9.90.
