  • Easter eggs, mysteries, old characters from the previous Inspector Waffles game!
  • An exciting story that keeps you on the edge of your seat!

Demo is already available, I'm planning a Q3 2024 full release.

Stay tuned! :)

Thank you very much for doing a video of my game :)  Glad you like it too!

I already commented the same thing on your blog but can't stop myself from triggering the algorythm some more.
I can't see what kind of players would not like this game, it has intruiging elements from various genres, set in a classy style and ofc we are featuring cats here - cmon. Try it, comment it and rate it - I cant believe I havent seen this on the front page :O

Hope itch will add it on the front page someday, crossing fingers! :)

Nice game, but I couldn't discover the secret thing. I know it has something with the abandoned parcel near police station.

You have to go to police station and ask a person to go to alarm store, so you can get the parcel tag. However, I can't put the tag in the parcel.


Thanks anyway, and waiting for the complete game.

Thanks for playing! :)

If I can give you a hint, you should check the clients' list in the alarm store, there is one line that explains the secret thing's first step.  You have the next steps right. I know it isn't easy but it's on purpose :)
