Pretoria, South Africa (September 7, 2022) — Today, Silvernode Games is excited to announce that its “point-and-lick” comedy-noir adventure game, Nine Noir Lives, is now available! Players can don their trench coats and hit the streets of Meow Meow Furrington to solve the case on PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.

“Adventure games like Day of the Tentacle and Broken Sword left a huge impression on me, and I wanted to pay tribute to the genre with my own unique contribution,” said William Kruger, Founder of Silvernode Games. “Nine Noir Lives is a dream come true for me, and I can’t wait for people to experience it. I hope they grow to love Cuddles Nutterbutter and Tabby Marshmallow as much as we here at Silvernode do.”

An ode to a classic genre, Nine Noir Lives see players taking on the roles of P.I Cuddles Nutterbutter and his trusty assistant Tabby Marshmallow in order to conduct an investigation grittier than a 25lb bag of kitty litter. Cuddles and Tabby will poke, talk, and lick their way through their toughest investigation yet: a murder case that threatens to upset the tenuous relationship between the paw-erful Montameeuw and Catulet crime families. Along the way, players will interact with dozens of fully-voiced characters, beautifully hand-drawn scenes, and devious puzzles to answer the most important question of all: how many things need to be licked to solve a murder in this town?

Key Features of Nine Noir Lives Include:
Brought Up on Feline-y Charges: A charming comedy-noir storyline set in the unique and intriguing city of Meow Meow Furrington, inspired by every cat ever and with fewer cat puns than you might expurrct.

A Point-and-Lick Adventure: Discover a whole new dimension to everything in the game by using Cuddles’ tongue. Lick first, and ask questions later. Questions like "what did you expect that to taste like, Cuddles?"

S’more Cats Equals S’more Fun: Experience the city from two very different perspectives as you switch between Cuddles and his trusty assistant, Tabby Marshmallow.

Purrfect Voice Acting: Laugh and learn about the world of Furth with over a hundred thousand words of fully-voiced dialogue performed by an all-star cast including Lucas Gilbertson (Megaman X), Carol-Anne Day (A Hat in Time) and SungWon Cho (Borderlands 3, God of War Ragnarok).

Nine Noir Lives is meow available for PC and Mac via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Game Store for $19.99 USD / €19.99 / £ 17.50.
