About the Game

The moon shines as the midnight wind blows through the half-opened window. A stern figure sits in a brown leather chair and lights up a cigar.

A rustle of newspaper and a gleam in the figure's eye... A new case has presented itself, and it's detective is ready.

Patty "Pat" Irvin sweeps out of his chair and collects his things. His thirst for solving crime is about to be sated.

What is What?!?

What?! is a single-player mystery game that focuses on its compact story and unconventional solutions. Players will take on the role of Pat Irvin, a ditzy private investigator struggling to maintain his family business.

Players will have access to four full cases, and an additional tutorial case, with each case evolving upon existing ideas while remaining distinct.
