Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir - spoiler free walkthrough (Part 1)

Welcome to RPG Site's guide for Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir. Although the game is a point-and-click adventure and doesn't necessarily have negative consequences for making the wrong decisions. We still detail how to get through the game without spending too much time. This guide is divided into two halves just like how you would play them on the Famicom Disc System.

Although The Missing Heir is released before Famicom Detective Club: The Girl Who Stands Behind, the game actually takes place after. If you're looking for information related to the other game in this release, we've got a full The Girl Who Stands Behind walkthrough as well.
