A brand-new trailer for Nine Noir Lives reveals the indie point-and-click adventure game's fast-approaching release date. The upcoming title promises to blend elements of mystery, puzzle-solving, crime noir and comedy to bring a truly unique feline fantasy to life. Point-and-click mystery games like Loco Motive have become a prominent part of the indie game market, and Silvernode Games will sink its claws into the genre with Nine Noir Lives.
Nine Noir Lives looks to borrow heavily from classic point-and-click adventure games like Monkey Island and Grim Fandango. While these games generally lack in-depth combat systems, they make up for it through interesting world-building and clever narratives. Point-and-click games also have simple controls, meaning that any gamer can pick one up and play it immediately.

Point-and-click adventure games are not always the most intense experiences, but they can be very intriguing thanks to clever writing and art design.
