About Casey Noir and Carved Pumpkin's Latte
You've read the description. It's pretty self-explanatory. If you're in a mood for a short, about 2 hour long, visually-heavy mystery game that's just right for the autumn season, then why not give this a try?However, if the free Halloween candy doesn't convince you, then read onwards.
- Step into the shoes of Casey Noir, an immortal, shadowy detective, who was invited to a Halloween party at a gothic hotel by a familiar face.
- Unfortunately, the reunion is cut short when one of the guests is murdered, with the murderer being one of the guests still present.
- Investigate the hotel and its surroundings, chat with suspects, collect evidence, and dig to the bottom of what's exactly going on this Halloween. The masks of the party-goers conceal, detract, and lie.

✦ AI summary
Players consistently praise the game's striking visual art style and atmospheric presentation, calling it a visual feast that makes the short 1-2 hour experience worthwhile, especially given its free price. However, opinions diverge sharply on the story execution: some find the mystery well-paced with an exceptional epilogue and engaging deduction gameplay, while others criticize the heavy reliance on walls of text, thin character motivations, and an underwhelming murderer's explanation that feels rushed. The point-and-click exploration and stylized art can also make it unclear what's actually
sadly...the only thing this game has going for it is the art. which...in the sense of a point and click game is sometimes too stylized to properly know what you are clicking at. what's more, the game relies on "telling", not showing. there are literal walls of text.... and we need like a 5 minute epilogue to explain why the murderer did it. and even then... the motivation is paper thin....1 found this helpful
Casey Noir and CPL good! Art is beautiful and cohesive. Story grows on you, but takes a second to kick in gear. Loved the murder mystery and evidence gathering!
Отличный сюжет, классный художественный стиль. Если вам нравятся визуальные новеллы, эта на удивление бесплатна, и я не понимаю почему. Хорошая игра для начала сезона Хэллоуина, стоит того! Great storytelling, cool art style. If you enjoy visual novels this one is surprisingly free and I don't understand why. Nice game to start off spooky season, worth it!
Really awesome project! And being totally free, there's no reason not to give it a go. The visual artstyle is the standout. While it took me a while to get used to the exploring the point and click hotel, once you've figured out the layout, and the mystery properly starts, it was really cool to start figuring out clues and investigating. Every scene is beautifully drawn, a visual feast for the eyes. The mystery itself is really well done and paced well to be done in a 1-2 hours. All of the characters are cool as well. And especially most of all, for a mystery/deduction game it nails the ending conclusion, with an extremely cool epilogue and finale that was really exceptional. Even if you don't find it perfect or gel with it totally, just being free and seing the visual creativity on display is worth, so I'd highly recommend to anyone to download it and check it out! Very glad I stumbled across this on my days on the internet.
Rough around the edges for sure, but definitely worth checking out! Interesting story, nice environment and artwork and fun gameplay! (though the gameplay is definitely subjective) Characters are interesting design and personality wise. Pretty sure this game took me about 2 hours to complete, steam always messes up my recorded time for some reason :/ Also, the epilogue sequence was peak.
Short and simple, beautiful art accompanied with comfy music. Nothing mind-boggling, which is a shame, but still a fun game. My only issue is how tiring it is to read the text and the excessive amount of vibrant colours can make it so that it's difficult to concentrate on the game but I still recommend trying it.
