Solve the Mystery in Meow Meow Furrington as Cuddles Nutterbutter in NINE NOIR LIVES

It seems like there’s a new point-and-click adventure game to write about every week! This is nuts. The latest one I have to share is the comedy-noir Nine Noir Lives from developer Silvernode Games. In this game, you play as Cuddles Nutterbutter trying to solve a mystery in the city of Meow Meow Furrington. Inspiration for the game includes classic film noir, Shakespeare, and Taika Waititi’s absurdist comedy. What could go wrong?

In Nine Noir Lives, players will take on the role of Cuddles Nutterbutter, a feline private investigator with a taste for solving crime… literally. Cuddles will poke, talk, and lick his way through his toughest investigation yet: a murder case that threatens to upset the tenuous relationship between the paw-erful Montameeuw and Catulet crime families. Along the way, players will interact with dozens of fully-voiced characters, beautifully hand-drawn scenes, and devious puzzles to answer the most important question of all: how many things need to be licked to solve a murder in this town?

Talking about the game, William Kruger of Silvernode Games said:

Nine Noir Lives is a passion project we’ve been self-funding for several years now. We set out to make the sort of game that we always wanted to get lost in. It’s been a real labor of love, and we can’t wait for players to step into our cat-filled world when the game launches in September.

You can check out the trailer for Nine Noir Lives below and get ready to play on PC via Steam and GOG starting September 7. Some additional features to look forward to include seeing Meow Meow Furrington from two perspectives and an incredible voice cast including Lucas Gilbertson (Megaman X), Carol-Anne Day (A Hat in Time), and SungWon Cho (Borderlands 3).
