About Crooked Knobs

✦ AI summary

Crooked Knobs is a point-and-click murder mystery where you play as a detective investigating an attempted murder at an eccentric billionaire's isolated mansion, interrogating 12 suspicious guests across five distinct cases while uncovering interconnected secrets. Solve the case through careful observation, creative interrogation methods, and strategic use of detective tools within a tight six-hour window, knowing that some suspects will actively mislead you to cover their tracks.

A well known Detective received an invitation by the wealthy Viktor Von Schlonger to take part to his infamous dinner party, where only the richest, dodgiest and overall peculiar people in the world are welcomed, and only once a year.In Crooked Knobs, you are said Detective. All fine, all simple. Just enjoy the vacation, relax your brain, and don't think much of the mötley crüe of criminals and felons that will accompany you for the entire duration. Surely, none of them might have a reason to...ATTEMPTED murder why thank you, but still... heinous all the same. Viktor Von Schlonger is attacked and almost killed throughout the night, and the one who did it is certainly within reach.Will you be able to solve the mystery, find the murderer, and motives behind their actions in this point-and-click murder mystery? Perhaps. But be wary, there's more than meets the eye around...A huge, isolated Villa on top of a cliff of a remote Lewdropean peninsula, Von Schlonger's Mansion ain't nothing to mess with. Over the years, the eccentric raccoon molded it into somewhat of a madhouse, chock full of fascinating vistas, childish arcade rooms, gold furniture... and terrible secrets.A similar place surely makes it easier to come up with a murder plan, with many hiding spots, escape routes, and improvised weapons. Crooked Knobs is all about being observant... and being observant is key, because if anyone knows this mansion inside and out, it is certainly...Devious, friendly, ruthless, cold-hearted, loving, we have 'em all. None of the 12 guests roaming around the mansion can be completely trusted, but all of them can be helpful... with a little "push". Yes, you can "push" them all. High morals are flexible anyway.Careful though... one (or more) of them is the murderer. And they'll make sure their "help" might throw you in the wrong direction to complicate the case further. Use all the instruments at your disposal and choose wisely, you only have 6 hours to spare before letting them all go.Fortunately, you're not exactly... alone on your quest. But I can't spoil everything now can I.Only one way to find out all there is to know. I hope you'll enjoy Crooked Knobs. In more than one way, goes without saying!

ABOUT THESE "AI CONTENT DISCLOSURE" THAT ARE ALL THE RAGE NOWADAYS....None of that here. Absolutely NO ASSET in this game is, or will EVER be created, through the use of generative AI. That's why I ask you guys to be patient and bear with me, it is going to take a minute to get this done.In the meantime though, I've prepared a demo prologue to hold you over (releasing December 15, 2025), containing all original content not present in the main game. Please enjoy!
