Anyone remember 'The Detective Game'-C64?

[AGSfan]

Does anyone here remember 'The Detective Game' on the C64, i'm building a website dedicated to it and was wondering how many fans I could find???

Hmm, I'm not sure if this is it or not... I have this great memory (a memory of good things, not a complete memory ^_-) of this fantastic game I had on my old old C64. It was played with the tape deck, and featured a guy who was basically just a shadow, running in and out of people's houses (brightly coloured, from memory).

Is this it? Because if it is, I LOVE you. I've always wanted to know what that game was, and I've never had enough info about it to look it up.

If that's not it... then no, sorry Good luck with the webpage, though!

   I had a C64 for years, but I don't recall playing this one. Looks kool though.

Hmm, that's not what I was thinking of, then. Looks cool though. Plus, that description mentioned one of my all-time favourite old games ever - International Karate!!! ^_^

EDIT: Found it! It was "Frankie Goes to Hollywood"... man. I hope that game's really as good as I remember.

Ã,  Ã, Hey, Frankie Goes to Hollywood! I liked it It was a great game. I was playing it when I was 6-7. I didn't know English in that times, so I couldn't understand the texts. I guess there was a murderer in that house.
Ã,  Ã, I've found an emulation of that game, but it doesn't run. Damn...

Frankie Goes to Hollywood is crazy go nuts... you go into televisions and paintings and play minigames...

they never showed that part of being a PI in movies

Hey, I remember that game! I played it for a pretty long time, but never managed to finish it. It's probably one of the better adventure games, even counting the PC ones. I remember great music. When you're done with your site, be sure to send me a link.

If it is the game refered to by Barbarian than you can download it aswell as a cool C64 emulator from

Get Impossible Mission aswell because that game rocks -
"Get him my Robots"
