Amazing game for its time. 1985, if I recall correctly. Zzap! gold medal. Completed it once. Much more creative than almost everything else at the time. And it all fitted inside 64k. Incredible.
I loved this game so much though I never really figured out what was going on (it was a pirated copy and came with no instructions whatsoever). I liked the little games best.
@akguni And a really odd thing I found out - all the notes in that piece are about half a semitone sharp. So on any tuned musical instrument, you can't play it unless you actually deliberately detune it.
Unbelievably this was one of only a few C64 games I actually completed!! Is it me or wasn't it much better when video games were as simple as this? Games are too realistic nowadays. Just because the graphics were simple it didn't mean that they weren't bloody hard to play!
If you were tripping when you were playing this game. It would quite possibly be the greatest thing you would ever imagine. But...if you thought one bad thought...it would become a nightmare and holly johnson would be inside your head sayin FRANKIE SAYS: RELAX over and over and over!!!!!
Why would anyone keep a floppy disk and a video (Remember them?) in a fridge?
Seriously, I had a copy of this game but I had no idea what the hell was going on, I just liked to do the minigames. I managed to fill the barchart on the right hand side all the way up.
This game frightened me when I was a nipper.

@queenmagic1982 There are three on Ebay now. Two for the Commodore and one for the Speccy.
Good news is that they all have the live recording of "Relax" which is usually missing.

I used to switch the light on and off again and again because it gave you some points...
Ahh, the memories of a wasted childhood.

And no, I never did solve the murder mystery.
