iirc Murder on the Mississippi was originally devloped by Activision for the Commodore(?). One of the few western adventures to be ported to the Japanese NES (aka Famicom), but not get an English NES release (such as Law of the West)

And I wouldn't really call Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom a 'knock-off'. The game is unique (i.e. absolutely bonkers) with its concept and story, plus it's a remake of a 1984 pc game.
YES I second that one. Great choice. Nihom Falcom made good games.
