About Sergeant Squidley: Space Cop!

The best cop in town has been murdered, and there's only one man who can solve the case: Sergeant Squidley, Space Cop!

Hastily promoted from traffic duty, Squidley must use all his Strength, Investigation, and Handiness as he travels around Moontropolis searching for evidence to solve the case. But there are stronger forces than just the criminal underworld at play: an ex-wife who hates him, a young son to take care of, and a dark secret held by pretty much everyone in town.
A decision-based RPG that lets you steer the story as you wish! Want to be a dutiful police officer? Or maybe you want to indulge your criminal side? Perhaps you want to ignore policework altogether and work on your side-hustle as a jazz saxophonist? Or take a few days off to reconnect with your estranged son? There are hundreds of choices to make, from the heartfelt, to the ridiculous, to the downright nasty, and each of them impacts how the story unfolds.
Sergeant Sqiudley is a love letter to the text-based DOS games of the late 80s and early 90s. You’ll guide Squidley around the city of Moontropolis, making decisions that impact the direction of the story. Follow the plot as intended, or go off on any number of tantalizing tangents, derailing the narrative to all sorts of wacky ends.
The objective of the game is to solve the murder of Detective Dex Beeglor, and Squidley has one week to complete this task. But there are so many things to do around the city, it's going to be impossible to fit them all in. Investigate the crime scene, interview the victim's family, and ask around town to identify suspects… or don’t. You're completely free to ignore the case, and simply live out a week in Squidley's shoes.
Moontropolis is a bustling city, with dozens of characters to encounter, each with their own personality, daily schedule, and opinion about our intrepid investigator. Will you become everyone’s best friend, or make a lot of enemies? That’s for you to decide.

As a freshly divorced man, Squidley can also pursue romantic relationships via the dating app Flintr, where you can set up dates with anyone you meet on your travels.

You’ll also need to balance your core stats of Strength, Investigation and Handiness, while keeping Squidley rested and well-fed, lest his abilities and health begin to wane. Sergeant Squidley is a true detective sandbox, with hundreds of decisions to make and countless potential paths to follow. How will you spend your week in the shoes of Sergeant Squidley?

I LOVE this game. The art style is so retro and cool, the visual novel aspect is well done and really clean, and the story is funny and at times, relatable. I also love the world and the characters, as they are unique and in many ways present their own mysteries to be solved. I am a big fan of the loveable loser archetype, and Squidley carries that in spades. The time dynamic of the game is something I've not encountered before playing this game and I am all for it. It helps balance the game in a way that makes the replays interesting every time. The story branches were very well thought out: one subtle change in how you react can lead to a whole other version of characters you are interacting with. It is all very well planned out and lovingly executed. I hope everyone gets a chance to play this game. It is well worth the price of admission for something that I'm sure countless hours were spent making. This is indie game making at its finest; thank you for this experience, and I can't wait to play anything else you make!

I had great fun playing this game! I didn't solve the case the first time round, and I feel like I have more people to meet and places to explore next time I play. I like how you can decide what level your strength, investigation skills and handiness are at the beginning. It made your actions (and consequences) rewarding and sometimes funny! I definitely recommend this game to anyone looking for a challenge, and who enjoys a good laugh. Will definitely be playing again, and I'm excited to see how my actions have consequences in the future. And maybe solve the case too lol.

Very funny and it's clear a lot of effort went into this game. It's very easy to play too. If even I can manage it, you can.

With a charming, slightly british sitcom sense of humor, a surprisingly pleasant and contagious chiptune soundtrack, and a wonderful replay until you get it right story progression, this game's a gem begging to be played.
Recommended Apr 9, 2024
Sergeant Squidley is a really fantastic game. I love the retro arcade style of the graphics and the creator’s sense of humour really shines through as Squidley gets up to all sorts of crazy shenanigans while trying to figure out who is responsible for the murder of a colleague. There are various options to choose from when guiding Squidley’s actions so you can play the game several different ways and have fun side adventures as you work towards the overall goal of solving the case. I haven't managed to unmask the murderer yet so I'm looking forward to spending more time with Squidley and the colourful cast of supporting characters! Would highly recommend.

It's a fun mystery. I didn't find the killer but am eager to try again. I really liked the artwork.
