NoseBound

NoseBound is a point-and-click adventure about Ray Hammond, a private eye with a gritty past and unorthodox methods. Its detective story moves back and forth in time, from the end to the beginning, as you investigate what happened and how.

Investigate the case

After the phone rings, you equip yourself with basic detective gear and leave the office. You interrogate contacts, snoop around and follow clues. As the investigation deepens, you face trouble that you can tackle with your wits or your guns.

Puzzles and action

You pick up and combine items, use basic crafting and solve puzzle mechanisms. You can also pick locks, break windows and use ladders and other physical improvements to your character. Dramatic scenes include gunfights, duels and chases.

Noir atmosphere

The game uses black-and-white filters, film noise and scratches. Its influences include the works of H. P. Lovecraft, including The Call of Cthulhu; Raymond Chandler, including The Big Sleep; and Dashiell Hammett, including Red Harvest. It also draws on occult authors such as Aleister Crowley, Eliphas Levi, Papus and Cornelius Agrippa, combining these influences into its own story.
