Legends of Murder Collection is a retro‑style Windows adventure and role‑playing (RPG) mystery game collection that brings together two classic Legends of Murder titles in one package. In this compilation, you step into the shoes of an Inspector who must investigate eerie murders that occur under supernatural or unexplained circumstances, using logic, dialogue, clues, and combat to uncover the truth.
The first chapter, Legends of Murder: Volume 1 – Stonedale Castle, sees you exploring a haunted castle, questioning suspects, and gathering items to solve the mystery of the slain king. In the sequel, Legends of Murder II: Grey Haven, you return to unravel the murder of a wizard’s apprentice in a mysterious town.
Gameplay is viewed from an overhead perspective, with detailed text descriptions that bring locations and characters to life. You’ll talk with NPCs, collect clues, solve puzzles, and face various enemies using both physical weapons and magical abilities. The mix of investigation, exploration, and RPG combat gives this collection a nostalgic charm reminiscent of classic mystery games — perfect for fans of story‑driven adventures.
