Detective Case and Clown Bot in: Murder in the Hotel Lisbon vs Polda

Murder in the Hotel Lisbon is a retro‑style point‑and‑click adventure that throws you into a hilariously twisted murder case. Play as the legendary Detective Case and the eccentric Clown Bot as they untangle a web of love affairs, prophecy, and absurd clues to explain a victim’s 14 stab wounds while sipping coffee. The game features a simple click‑to‑interact interface, an inventory that can be accessed at any time, and the ability to save anywhere. Its comedic writing and puzzle‑heavy design pay homage to classic 80‑ and 90‑year‑old adventure games while delivering a fresh, indie twist.

Polda is a classic 1998 point-and-click adventure developed by SleepTeam.
