Cat Detective Albert Wilde
Developer beyondthosehills
Play as the Cat Detective Albert Wilde. Walk, talk, interrogate, joke, solve a mystery, and experience an old film noir setting with humanoid animal characters. A story of quantum theory and parallel universes served with a lot of humour. From the Steam store page

unlabelledView post →The fact this has only 50 reviews on it is attrocious. This is a masterpiece that can be enjoyed by all ages and is incredibly written. I've seen Netflix series with worse production in every way from visual usage, interactivity, voice acting, and animation. Get this. It's better than any movie ticket you could buy, and will last you a lot longer.

unlabelledView post →It's funny enough to have a good time, but the actual game is lacking. First of all, gameplay is barely existing. All you do for the vast majority of it is look at all the hotspots and talk to everyone about everything. Hardly any puzzles or things to figure out or decide. You have an inventory, but never actively use it. Everything's on auto-pilot. It's not a detective game, it's a game that happens to have a detective in it and I'm having a hard time even calling it a game to begin with, to…

unlabelledView post →Cat Detective Albert Wilde is a great game. It really shows, how much the developers cared about their project with real passion. There are a TON of very funny jokes, which always made me laugh for my multiple playthroughs when testing the game and playing all through couple of times. The story is also very interesting and has some twists in it, which I think will be able to surprise players. The NOIR theme of this game is also a very nice touch to the whole experience, and it really makes you…

unlabelledView post →Probably my favorite narrative game of the year. The script is both hilarious and willfully verbose, setting the tone early and gripping on until the conclusion. There's little in the way of conventional adventure game puzzles, but the game sometimes subverts conventional genre norms in very funny ways. My absolute favorite was the sewer safe sequence. Cat Detective Albert Wilde demonstrates how to use Unity assets for the forces of good. Anyone who appreciates absurdist humor will be…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You really feel like a cat detective. I very much enjoy the self aware humor, and the narrating voice is great. The gameplay is a mix between a point & click adventure from a first person view and a narrative game. It's fun to walk around like in a 40s black and white movie, investigating the crime scene, finding clues, and solving small puzzles. So, if you like silly cat humor and a story driven noir adventure, this game is for you! :)

unlabelledView post →A extremely weird and often quite funny noir adventure game where you are a anthropomorphic cat P.I. trying to solve the murder of a very weird and tiny cat that looks exactly like you.... That's the setup, then it gets weirder. A lot weirder. Plays with noir movie stereotypes and tropes and doesn't overstay it's welcome with a fairly tight script with little fluff. It's mostly a visual novel where you can move around in the areas, not really any puzzles to speak about or any detective work. A…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is very down-the-middle for me. I loved the vibes, characters and story very much. A lot of my issues with the game come down to it being very long. If this stayed around the 3-4 hour mark, I think it'd be perfect but some moments dragged on for a very long time and left me wanting to speed through sections. The only other thing I want to mention is the camera filter during first-person walking sections. It was very strong and hard to look at for a while. If this could either be toned…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The film noir style, a realy good sound design and music make a great game. I love the voices of the characters.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The moment I launched this game for the first time I realized how much I would love it. From the soundtrack to the visuals to the comedy, everything works so well together, to make an easy to understand and fun to play story. I think that the peaks of this game are found in the dialogue and overall narrative. It's an atmospheric game that I believe anyone could enjoy.. especially if you like cats. Overall extremely fun and interesting game. I recommend to any fans of light novels!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The writing and the humor are great, but the game is basically a walking simulator visual novel. And the music is annoyingly repetitive, and the voice acting sounds like Duke Nukem, and probably AI. But the story is worth experiencing if you like light detective visual novels.

unlabelledView post →Cat Detective Albert Wilde is a unique and well-executed noir detective game. Keep in mind, it’s primarily a visual novel with some light exploration—so don’t expect much action. That said, the story is engaging and features some unexpected twists. I really enjoyed the visual style, and the voice acting fits the atmosphere perfectly. If you're into detective games, this one is definitely worth checking out.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →That was awesome. Never-ending puns and gags worthy of a Leslie Nielsen classic, film noir thick as molasses, and one lucky bastard for protagonist. Brilliant lines for a decent cozy story. Steam Deck controls will need fixing — still manageable! — and the fight scene calls for adjustment, but otherwise very sweet experience. Thank you, guys.

unlabelledView post →The game has a lot to like, from the old school noir atmosphere , to the hilarious star (Albert really has a cat personality) plus lots of other funny characters, to the fantastic narrative voice. And the background music suits so well with the cinematic presentation. But what really stands out is the dialogues. Funny all the way, often surreal and absurd. And still the story flows like a movie. This is fun. A very unique and fresh adventure game.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cat Detective Albert Wilde, developed and published by beyondthosehills, is an eccentric noir adventure that embraces absurdity as much as it does mystery. Set in a world of anthropomorphic animals, the game places players in the role of Albert Wilde, a world-weary feline private investigator trying to make sense of a murder case that quickly spirals out of control. What begins as a familiar hardboiled detective story soon morphs into something entirely unexpected—blending surreal humor,…
