It adopts these eras distinctive design and it is built using only the pixel art technique. The game itself runs at a native resolution of 256x192, the same resolution used by the old ZX Spectrum 48k and most recently by the Nintendo DS. "Pretty funny and charming" - 148apps"Pushes the limits of our nostalgia" - Killscreen“The soundtrack is Awesome!” - Retromaniac"Don't quote me!" - AnonymousSYNOPSIS:A strange murder has occurred in the Hotel Lisbon, a man committed suicide with 14 stabs to the back while at the same time he peacefully drank his coffee. This case with contradictory facts was too complex for Policeman Garcia to solve, so he decided to hire the only detective duo in town capable of solving it: the mythical Detective Case and the unmistakable Clown Bot. Together, they will solve a network of love relations so complex and so intricate, that it would take at least 14 clairvoyants, 5 apocalyptic sect prophets who can predict the end of the world and 3 of those gypsies that can read the palm of your hand just to guess the final outcome. CHARACTERS:With the mythical Detective Case, also known as the world worst detective, a man so rough and rude that his witnesses would rather be run over by a slow moving freight train than to be questioned by him. And the hilarious Clown Bot who, although he works as a Detective Case’s sidekick, he hopes in reality that one day he will get a job as a circus clown. Unfortunately, and no matter how many applications he sends, no circus will ever accept a clown that is afraid of children. He never sleeps, so besides working by day as a sidekick, he also works by night as a stand-up comedian in a local bar. People say that he is a joke machine.KEY FEATURES:Murder in the Hotel Lisbon has THOUSANDS of key features!- A point and click graphic adventure game.- Play as Detective Case and Clown Bot.- Search for clues and interview witnesses.- Take a rest, have a nap.- Solve the murder in the Hotel Lisbon.- Includes 3 aditional cases.ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK:Murder in the Hotel Lisbon may be low res and retro on the visual side, but we made sure that on the audio side your ears would rejoice with a complete original soundtrack.

It has a similar art style. I don't want to derail this thread getting in depth about a different game, but I highly suggest to anyone that has an interest in this title should also check out the other. In all seriousness: now. Without giving anything away: Stand Up Clown is a real, and rare, treat. To sweeten the deal, the whole 'free' angle is, as far as I can tell, completely free. No IAP, no ads, timers, or other chicanery... Just stylish, clever, and hilarious entertainment with a very interesting game mechanic. Seems to be the same modus operandi with this new game. A guaranteed purchase for this new entry. Looking forward to giving it some time. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #11 metalcasket, Jan 21, 2015 Stand Up Clown's also a part of this game, FYI. aeranth Well-Known Member May 8, 2012 91 0 6 #12 aeranth, Jan 22, 2015 Last edited: Jan 22, 2015 Ha! Doofus alert! In my defense I've been quite busy today... I downloaded this and Stand Up Clown simultaneously. Between spamming the broken 'buy' button for Potatoman Seeks The Troof, just opening Stand Up Clown to take a peek, and write the above comment... Aaaaaannnnnnndddddd... Well, Stand Up Clown occupied so much of my attention I got completely caught up in it. So much so that the very thought of 'I wonder if this is a companion app to the other one' flicked through my brain and I just kept on playing and cracking wise with my clown... For emphasis: I've had my brain blown by a companion app of all things! I always thought the precedent set by Year Walk (& the companion, of course) was exceptional, but this implementation is a close second, indeed. aeranth Well-Known Member May 8, 2012 91 0 6 #13 aeranth, Jan 22, 2015 Ah, I see now... Stand Up Clown is within CaseBot. Neat. I like that they made a separate app, but clearly redundant if you buy CaseBot. Haven't had time to really dig in yet, but I've got a long snowy night ahead and if Potatoman doesn't show up... Well, then, I've got some clowning, point&clicking, and some mystery cases to solve. collider Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Mar 22, 2013 185 0 16 CEO/Owner Collider, Inc.

However, what I can say is that this is a well constructed game made with sincere love for the point & click adventures of the past. The dialogue is quipped with wit and effortless humor, granted, this always comes down to personal taste, but it should be said that most 'funny/humor' games seem so put on, and therefore, explicitly unfunny. Not the case with this. (Your mileage may vary.) The graphics are wonderful; again, this may come down to taste. But, at the very least, the craft of the art (& engine) means that these guys literally wrote this code line by line, in the traditional way. A subtle effect with substantial rewards. This isn't some slapped together Unity Frankenstein. Old school love, made with old school chops, that's not something you see everyday. In my opinion, that makes this game absolutely worth supporting. Some serious magic underneath the hood here, folks... Luciano1084 Well-Known Member May 8, 2014 1,515 0 36 #18 Luciano1084, Jan 22, 2015 I can't agree with you more nemerleb Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2013 544 0 0 #19 nemerleb, Apr 2, 2015 Game is crashing constantly during last interrogation. Running on iPad Mini with latest iOS. So I can't complete the game. Anyone else with the same problem?
