April 2026
Cute, loved the breaks in the fourth wall and the snide comments in dialogue. Not a difficult playthrough, the puzzles weren't hard, overall very enjoyable game to play.

Really great modern Point and Click Adventure game with hand drawn animation. Feels the older point and click games used to feel in some ways.

A very well-structured point-and-click with a deliriously cornball sense of humour, lovingly-crafted graphics and animation, and fun voice acting. It was clearly created with affection by people who understand the subject matter (and have an interesting position on how to render it in a film noir parody format). There are a couple of minor nitpicks with puzzle logic here and there, but the sheer fun and exuberance of the game more than compensate for it. Five stars for the climactic battle scene in particular.

I enjoy a good noir game, and this one doesn't disappoint. The voodoo just adds to its charm. In fact, you can combine items to create "spells" to affect the environment and characters. The story itself is a fun throwback to the old school hardboiled detective stories with a healthy dose of spirituality sprinkled in. Any fan of point-and-click adventure games with a good mixture of Tex Murphy and Gabriel Knight 1 elements should find something to like here.
