A playthrough of Segas 1987 adventure game for the Sega SG-1000, Lorettas Portrait: Sherlock Holmes (ロレッタの肖像 / Roretta no Shouzou).
For this video, I used Jamiras recently released English translation patch. You can find the patch at https://www.romhacking.net/translations/7526/
Loretta no Shouzou is a point-and-click detective adventure game for the SG-1000, the precursor to the Sega Master System. It was one of the SG-1000s final official releases (followed only by The Black Onyx), and weighing in at one megabit, it was notable for being the largest game ever produced for the console.
You are Sherlock Holmes, and youve been hired to investigate the theft of a painting from a local art gallery. As you poke around nineteenth century London questioning suspects and finding clues, it becomes apparent that the painting is just the tip of the iceberg, and you soon find yourself entangled in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse.
The game plays out like a PC adventure. You click on items to examine them, you interact with people and move between locations through a series of context-sensitive menus, and additional actions and places are made available as you uncover new information. Itll immediately feel familiar to anyone who has played Enixs Portopia no Satsujin Jiken or any of the MacVenture games.
What stuck out to me about Lorettas Portrait was how ambitious it was for an SG-1000 game. The machine wasnt designed to handle much beyond simple early 80s arcade-style shooters and platformers, and yet here we see a fully explorable city, full-screen background images, window overlays, boatloads of text, and a save system. As crude as the graphics and sound are, I cant help but be impressed by what Sega achieved with this cart.
No cheats were used during the recording of this video.
