Tose, SUNSOFT

A NES action game developed by SunSoft and the sequel to Mito Koumon. It was never released outside of Japan. Mito Koumon II: Sekai Manyuuki is the sequel to Mito Koumon and is very similar in appearance and gameplay. As in that game, the player controls one of Mitsukini Tokugawa's retainers as they gather clues and evidence of crimes in the area while either avoiding or fighting off hostile NPCs. Unlike the first game, which was set entirely within Japan, Tokugawa is crossing the world solving issues instead. The first stage is America (specifically the Wild West, as would be chronologically accurate for the 17th century) though there are plenty of other locations to visit across the world as well, including even Transylvania.

SUNSOFT, Tokai Engineering

An adventure game for the NES published by Sunsoft. A boy named Kyle must rescue the princess of a kingdom where very small humans and animals peacefully co-exist. Ripple Island (occasionally seen translated as "Lipple Island") is a graphic adventure game where the player interacts with the world using a series of commands, such as "pick up", "walk" or "use". Rather than the usual murder mystery games which were the trend at the time, Ripple Island instead adopts a fantasy storybook setting where smaller humans and friendly animals, such as raccoons and rabbits, co-exist peacefully. The kingdom is threatened by the arrival of Gerogeru, a self-styled Emperor of Darkness and giant frog, after he kidnaps the princess. Kyle, a young boy and the game's protagonist, is attempting to rescue her. The game was never released outside of Japan. It was, however, re-released as part of a Japan-only PS2 compilation based on Sunsoft's works. It also received a manga adaptation.

Tokai Engineering, SUNSOFT

An adventure game for the NES published by Sunsoft. It is based on a Japanese manga set during a historical Chinese civil war. Sekiryuou (often translated as "Red Dragon King") is a traditional Famicom adventure game from Sunsoft, in which the player controls a protagonist via a series of menus in order to solve a series of puzzles. Though Sunsoft is credited as publisher, it is unclear if the game was made in-house or contracted to another developer. The game, and the manga it is based on, depict a period of ancient Chinese history between the Qin and Han dynasties, a few decades before the Three Kingdoms era began. As expected of a transitional period, there was plenty of intrigue and conflict leading up to the change of power that future novels and mangas could draw from.

Tose, SUNSOFT

This is an adventure game based on a TV show about a retired governor and his retainers going around solving problems in Edo period Japan. The game allowd players to assume the role of one of the retainers as they go around investigating the town. Occasionally this involves fights with corrupt officials, evil samurai and gangsters. There's also a female ghost that will drain the player character's life if it comes into contact with them. The game is noted for its many instances of speech samples. It also has a considerable amount of text. The game consists of seven stages. Players control Kaku-san (Kakunoshin), a jujutsu user, in the odd-numbered stages and Suke-san (Skesaburo), a katana user, in the even-numbered stages, and go around the action stages to collect evidence of evil deeds. The use of certain items allows the player to switch to a ninja or a servant for a certain period of time. The ninja can go undercover and the servant can interview the townspeople. In every stage, there is evidence that can only be obtained by ninjas or servants, and they must take turns. Each time evidence of wrongdoing is collected, the clue gauge rises, and when it reaches its maximum, the stage is cleared by presenting the evidence to their lord, Mitsukuni Tokugawa (Mitokomon), who is waiting for them at the inn. If the time limit is exceeded without collecting all the evidence, the player is forced to proceed to the next stage, but the final stage cannot be completed until all the stages have been cleared.

The game is essentially a series of 36 jigsaw puzzles with Tetris-like pieces known as pentominos that must be assembled into a specific shape. The puzzles start off with rectangular shapes and simple solutions, but the puzzles quickly grow more complex, with odder shapes like a rocket ship, a gun, and even enlarged versions of some of the pentominoes themselves. Each level is timed, and once the timer is started it cannot be stopped until the level is finished. One starts off the game with only three pentomino pieces, and at the completion of each early level, a new piece is awarded to the player. At the final level, the player is given the 2x2 square O tetromino and must complete an 8x8 square puzzle. After completing each level, the player was given a password to access that level at a later time. Interestingly, each password was a common English four-letter word, so that by guessing common four-letter words, players could potentially access levels they had not actually reached by playing the game.
