Killed Until Dead by Accolade on the Commodore 64 is a tongue-in-cheek detective game where you’re a private eye prowling a seaside hotel full of famous mystery writers, trying to stop a murder before it happens at midnight. Each case randomly picks who plans to kill whom, with what, and where, and your job is to snoop: wander the hotel corridors, peek into rooms, bug phones, rifle filing cabinets, read notes, and eavesdrop on conversations as suspects move around in real time. From their alibis, grudges, and little slips of information, you piece together the intended crime and then type in your full deduction—killer, victim, weapon, motive, and location—before the clock runs out, turning it into a replayable mix of logic puzzle, surveillance, and cozy-mystery parody.
