Hideo Kojima's second adventure game following Snatcher, Policenauts is essentially the adventures of anime Murtaugh and Riggs in space.

The graphics in the original PC-9801 version were made with conventional pixel art instead of the scanned animation cels used in the later console version, resulting in a style that more closely resembles the 16-bit console versions of Snatcher released around the same time.

Unused Music

The PC-9821 release of Policenauts contains an unused full-length version of the opening title track "Old L.A. 2040". In the actual game, "Old L.A. 2040" is shortened and split into CDDA tracks 3 and 4 which are used for the opening cutscene instead.

Hmmm...
To do:
Address the dialogue changes. Quite a bit of dialogue was reworked in the home console versions.
