Detectiveland

New Losago, 1929 – a town full of creeps, clowns, mobsters, and, if you know where to look, the occasional honest citizen. Guide private investigator Lanson Rose through a series of puzzling cases: solve the city's liquor supply problem in "Speakeasy Street", track down a missing food scientist in "The Big Pickle", and investigate strange goings-on under a dilapidated mansion in "A Study in Squid". An interactive fiction game using an innovative keyboardless interface, which won first place in the Interactive Fiction Competition.

One of best text adventure rpg. Allows more choices and interactions than regular text adventure games. Now Im waiting for a sequel to this text adventure. Hats off to the developer of this game.

I remember the browser version had sound and music but for some reason the music and sound is muted in my phone. I have turned on the music and sound in the settings

Good but preferred Draculaland. Hope you will port more of your games to Android, Robin. (By the way, there is no collective page for your games on Google Play.)

Fun, great interface, GTA of interactive textbased fiction. Took me a few hours of relaxed play.

Excellent and well written little game. Expertly crafted. Shame that this one or Draculaland haven't been noticed :-(

Honestly a gem! I wish there was a sort of map but that's just personal preference, it doesn't hinder gameplay not having one.

This is quite a nice, humorous game. The puzzles are amusing and not too difficult.

A clever and engaging noir puzzler which looks great on android.
