Murder. Nothin’ nice about it. In this old school detective adventure, step into the boots of whip-smart Inspector Waffles and travel the city to track hidden clues, interrogate shady suspects, and unravel a dangerous mystery. But be warned: curiosity killed the cat...
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.
Inspector Waffles was hoping his worst days were behind him, but the murder of a high-profile industrialist CEO beloved by the citizens of Cat Town raises new questions and fears.
Being the best inspector on the CTPD, Waffles has no choice: he's gotta push past the painful memories, don his well-worn overcoat, and prepare to get his paws dirty.
A detective story reminiscent of the old school classics, Inspector Waffles provides plenty of peculiar mystery, a story full of intrigue, and a slew of characters to interrogate, all wrapped into beautifully simple pixel-art. Will you be able to sniff out every clue and nab the murderer?
A REAL TREAT, SEE?
A brilliant feline detective in a world full of anthropomorphic cats, dogs, and maybe other species. It’s pixel-animal madness, I tell ya.
A beautiful jazzy soundtrack, full of notes and music and harmony pleasing to your ears and brain.
Chock full of dry humor and puns about cats and dogs. Seriously, I couldn’t think of any more puns to include. The pun supply is exhausted.

After completing "Inpector Waffles" I can only say it was enjoyable adventure - from start to finish. Story had nice twists and turns, puns were great and puzzles didn't stop me from finishing this journey. I love pixel art, so the whole thing was beautiful, including fitting music. I'll definitely come back to find all cards and play the game again!
Inspirational! My cat now wants candy and cake. This game is simple and to the point. The formula is solid. Well done guys, definately feels like the old school spirit. Bring on the next one!
It was a bit scary to play this game in 2022, but it's good. No modern stuff, everything looks like it came straight from the 90's. Reminded me of my childhood a lot and I love it for this fact.
Minuses... Well, perhaps the game is way too easy. The pixels are fat and even the pixel-hunting moments are done for in a minute or two. Really, the only thing I could've missed is one of eight collectible cars which unlock the secret ending, but other than that there's nothing but the most obvious things.
The game is also straight as a sword. There are no choices and it is impossible to lose, so it is pretty much a linear adventure. Which is also quite short, by the way. Done it in two evenings, but it is pretty possible to make through it in a day. Oh yeah, and the graphics are a bit too simplistic?
On the positive side I have an awesome soundtrack, straight-but-still-quite-touching dialogues which ocassinally made me smile and a good, positive story which warmed my heart, so, yeah, despite all the shortcomings, I feel like this game deserves the 5 stars and my money.
Good story and decent gameplay (similar to "Darkside Detective"), but they should've tightened up the dialogue. I'm not a fan of repeatedly having to click through everyone's lines for several minutes. That's what cutscenes were invented for. I also would've appreciated an option for highlighting hotspots. The "Chicken Police" cameo was a nice touch, though.
