Déjà Vu is a 1985 point-and-click adventure game developed by ICOM Simulations for the Macintosh as the first entry in the MacVenture series. Set in 1940s Chicago, the story follows detective Ace Harding as he attempts to clear his name and restore his memories after being framed for a murder. It is themed after various hardboiled detective novels and films.

Déjà Vu was first released in October 1985. It was later ported to several other platforms, including the Amiga, MS-DOS, and the Nintendo Entertainment System. Initially, the game featured black and white graphics, and later releases introduced color. A sequel, Deja Vu II: Lost in Las Vegas, was released in 1988.
