Notes
- The character designs is based on The Castle of Cagliostro however it is Lupin's red jacket from Part II. Fujiko is also a brunette rather than a blonde and wears her disguise rather than the camouflage army uniform. The tone of the game is also closer to the film than the majority of Lupin work.
- The game uses a combination of sprites and videos between scenes, the latter takes up the majority of the disc. As a result, the game is on two discs. On a technical note when using Dolphin and its texture dumping, the video scenes come up in grayscale as a frame buffer while the sprite scenes are in color. The game also runs at a lower resolution ranging from 320x176 to 640x352 outside of the title screen.
