Horii graduated from Waseda University's Department of Literature. He also worked as a freelance writer for newspapers, comics, and magazines, including the "Famicom Shinken" video games column that ran in "Weekly Shnen Jump" from 1985 to 1988. He then entered in an Enix-sponsored game programming contest, where he placed with "Love Match Tennis", a tennis video game, motivating him to become a video game designer. Horii then created "Portopia Serial Murder Case", a game that later inspired Hideo Kojima (of "Metal Gear" fame) to enter the video game industry. It is the first part of the "Yuuji Horii Mysteries" trilogy, along with its successors "" (1984) and "Karuizawa Ykai Annai" (1985). - , published as Dragon Warrior in North America until 2005, is a series of internationally best-selling console role-playing video game (RPG) titles created by Yuji Horii and his studio, Armor Project. - A role-playing video game (commonly referred to as role-playing game or RPG, and in the past was also known as computer role-playing game or CRPG) is a video game genre where the player controls the actions of a character (and/or several party members) immersed in some well-defined world. Many role-playing video games have origins in pen-and-paper role-playing games (Including "Dungeons & Dragons") and use much of the same , settings and game mechanics. Other major similarities with pen-and-paper games include developed story-telling and narrative elements, player character development, complexity, as well as replayability and immersion. The electronic medium removes the necessity for a gamemaster and increases combat resolution speed. RPGs have evolved from simple text-based console-window games into visually rich 3D experiences. Since the 1980s, Role-playing is the most commercially viable video game genre in Japan, and has more market share of any other genre in the japanese gaming industry, although in the 2010s first-person shooters and western iOS and Android games were becoming rapidly and increasingly popular in that country.
