About

Pixel Noir is a turn-based RPG set in a gritty, pixel-art world where you play a detective figuring out a city-shaking conspiracy. Explore neon-lit streets to gather clues, upgrade abilities, and tweak weapons for combat. Battles rely on timed attacks and strategy, balancing action with puzzle-like tactics to survive dangerous encounters and piece together the mystery. The game’s strength lies in its mix of investigation and combat, with a narrative that shifts based on your choices. Players appreciate the tight combat loops and atmospheric storytelling, averaging 4.3/5 on Steam. While the story can feel a bit predictable at times, the retro visuals and skill customization keep things engaging. Out on PC, Switch, Linux, and Mac since February 2024.
