Haven't heard of that game, but love me some FMV games. Those were the glory days, games like 'Myst' and 'Gabriel Knight'. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Can't help with a copy but good luck on the hunt!

Hey, uh, if it's a copy of 'Crime Wave' you're after, good luck. That game's like ultra rare or something. Pretty sure 'Crime Wave' ain't the detective game you mean. If it's FMV you want, there's loads to pick from the 90s, they were all the rage.

chances are the game youre thinking of is 'Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon' like the others said. If you're looking for a copy, you might also wanna check out digital distribution sites like GOG or Steam. I think they have those old games ready for download on modern systems.

Based on what you've mentioned, I'm almost certain the game you're thinking of is 'Under a Killing Moon'. It was a part of the Tex Murphy series, which included other titles like 'Mean Streets' and 'The Pandora Directive'. These were CD-ROM based games with FMV (Full Motion Video) that utilized real actors in a detective narrative. Very high tech for the nineties, obviously. If you're after a copy, check out online auction sites or local gaming collector shops.

uhm i think ur talking about 'Phantasmagoria' or 'The 7th Guest'? Both had real actors and were pretty big at the time. Search around on ebay or something, but those games aren’t that hard to find, lots of copies floating around.
