Description

Cat Detective Albert Wilde is a comedy noir, sci - fi mystery game that blends elements of a walking simulator and interactive novel, with a strong focus on humor.

About the game A freakish corpse… a pissed-off bookie… a wormhole to another reality… it’s just another day in the office for Albert Wilde, feline private eye. Cat Detective Albert Wilde is a short (6-7 hour runtime) genre-bending adventure set in 1930’s New York, featuring atmospheric visuals, neat minigames, and at least one joke about cat nipples (they have six!). Players must talk, walk and puzzle their way through a murder mystery that’s messier than a fresh hairball, in this hilarious zoological tribute to the golden age of noir.
