Murder!

The player is a master detective who solves murder mysteries. The game is a point-and-click adventure game with an isometric perspective. The murder scenarios are randomized, with a claimed 3 million unique combinations of elements.

The game has four difficulty levels, ranging from novice to super sleuth. The player solves the case by exploring a four level mansion for clues or evidence, questioning suspects over a two hour period.

David Wilson reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that while he noted similarities to the board game Clue, he found the game much more complex and sophisticated, and also said that the players can quickly learn and solve mysteries easily.
