This was followed by Orandazuma wa Denki Unagi no Yume o Miru ka? (Do Dutch Wives Dream of Electric Eels?, Dec. 1984, PC-8801). Inspired by Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), players take on the role of a private investigator who has to track down a sex doll (called Dutch wives in Japan) that has become sentient and is murdering its lovers. The player tracks down the rogue doll by seducing all the women in Tokyo’s red-light district.

The concept sounds awesome. The porno parody "Blade Runner" needed.

I think it was also the plotline of an episode of the AD POLICE anime OVA. Or maybe it was Parasite Dolls, which is part of the same series. I can't remember fully.

EDIT: After looking it up, it was either EP1/EP2 of AD POLICE FILES, or EP1 of Parasite Dolls that had a plotline like this. However, prostitutes and murder have been in crime and investigation stories since the dawn of crime, probably because the correlation of the two crimes is very high in real life. Most famous example being Jack the Ripper's cases.
