You really wouldn't think this would work as well as it does. Taipei-type tile puzzle, but as you solve it you get randomly-generated "clues" to logic out who done it. One time a guy was murdered by three women who were each missing a leg, acting together. The minigames are optional (they give more clues) but they're fun; there's a memory game, Fake...

Your goal is to make a Carmen Sandiego/Guess Who-style identification of the suspect(s) based on identifying...
MI:US is a cross between Mahjongg solitaire and "clue". I wish it was back in the 90s, when 800x600 was a good resolution for a 14" monitor. I would have loved this game then.
