Our take on Hot Tin Roof: The Cat That Wore A Fedora

What is Hot Tin Roof: The Cat That Wore A Fedora?
Play as Emma Jones, a private investigator investigating a series of murders alongside Franky, a cat in a fedora.
The game combines side-scrolling exploration with platforming and adventure-game investigation in a 3D world. Search locations for clues, then use them during conversations to reveal secrets and progress the cases. Four plot threads lead to 15 possible resolutions.
