Cat Town. On the outside, it looks like a nice place, one of little trouble and all that good stuff. But looks can be deceiving, as the recent murder of a beloved high-profile industrialist CEO proves. I mean, for the most part, everything’s likely still peachy… but this does mean that Inspector Waffles, the best the CTPD has to offer, needs to spring into action as no crime shall go unpunished. Meow?
Remember late 2018? Probably not. That was several years ago, and suffice to say, these past few have been quite eventful. Not always for the right reasons, so since we could all do with a little joy… happy National Puppy Day! Yay, puppies! Right. Anyway, late 2018. What was that… ah yes, my initial coverage of Inspector Waffles, featuring a hopeful ‘coming soon’ (in my mind, anyway) release date. But better late than never, and here we are, the feline inspector all set to get his paws dirty and clean up this mess. One way or another.
It’s hard to get the memory of that case out my head… I can’t even think about what my old partner went through without getting a bad taste in my mouth. I guess that’s why I’m sittin’ here drinking yet another glass of cold, hard milk.
So step into the shoes of Inspector Waffles as he puts on that well-worn overcoat and get ready to interrogate a slew of characters as you point ‘n click through the beautifully pixellated Cat Town, sniffing out clues and clawing your way ever closer to uncovering the culprit. What, humans? Eh, who needs ’em when you’ve got a wonderful world full of anthropomorphic cats, dogs, and ‘maybe other species’ (wait, what?) making up the cast in this murder mystery? So many puns too, and a sweet jazzy soundtrack to top it all off.
Inspector Waffles is available on Steam and GOG.com, carrying a $12.99 price tag.
