There's only one fitting answer: Mystery of the Druids

Come on, how could I forget making a bootleg pure alcohol (with some added flavor) just to get a change to use a telephone box.
"Do you feel it, Zach? My coffee warned me about it." Deadly Premonition was one wild ride for me personally and something I come back to now and then, especially during those long rainy nights (raincoat killer, please leave me alone bruh).
Finishing The Evil Within was a great time. The twists, turns and otherworldly weirdness made it a mystery I won’t soon forget!
I found out who the main character really is in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.
I remember how I had to deal with a gruesome case of corruption in Grim Fandango as Manny Calavera. At first, I had no idea what was going down. Good people who were meant to rest in peace found no rest at all, and I got framed for it. To clear my name I had to go to the edge of the world and beyond.

A lot of people walked that day, but in the end, the culprit who framed me wasn't one of them.

Mudered soul suspect was rather fine ride.
It was in Subnautica. I had build a scanning room on base, and got these two nifty, remote controlled cameras to go with it. However, they would always disappear and end up far away on the map even if I did not touch or use them. Absolute mystery. One time wen I swam to fetch one of the cameras again, I found a first clue. There was a stalker tooth just by the runaway camera. The next day, decided to stand guard over a brain coral, that releases air bubbles, so I didn't run out of oxygen. And, true enough one of those pesky stalkers stole the camera and swam away with it to its scrap metal stash.
I still don't understand why is this game so special .
Of course: Saving the princess in Super Mario! SAY NO TO KIDNAPPING!!
Solving the case of The Black Arrow Killer in The Pandora Directive
The case in the indie title Detective Grimoire where you solve the murder of an owner of a small tourist attraction! Great game with interesting gameplay, fun characters and some good intrigue :)
There have been so many cases that I, The Player, have opened & closed wide-shut.

As I sit here in my office & my my desk, in front of my computer, I have to think of them all. I have gone through many personalities & changes.

I remember some of them, if time hasn't destroyed them all.

I remember my lifetime as Ace Harding, feeling numerous cases of Deja Vu.

I remember my time as Cole Phelps, going through the L.A.; one of the best Noire experiences of all time, solving so many different missions & cases here, like only a Rockstar like myself - yes, I, The Player, could ever conquer. The times of yesterday, yet it felt like it was yesterday.

Yes, those Hollywood days...and Nights.

I remember my times in Paris, solving what happened at a hotel. Another one of my wonderful personas: Gus McPherson. But now, this time is over...and this feels like another Post Mortem here.

But, as I sit here and look at the last ash coming off the cigarette and who knows how much alcohol I've actually drank here, it would & could likely be the next case. The one in Revachol, that could be my latest greatest case, as I dance away these nights at a hotel, as if it was a Disco.

But, given that I, The Player, might've been dealing w/ numerous inquires from my other personalities and all of the addiction here from from drugs & alcohol, I'm not even sure if I've experienced this one before...or not.

Not sure if this is...another case of Deja Vu.
