Do you like adventure, comedy, and dime store detective novels? Then boy have we got the game for you! Join Voodoo Detective in a hand-drawn, point-and-click noir where you’ll pit your wits and hoodoo know-how against a sinister evil that’s taken root on beautiful Zo Wanga Isle.
You take on the role of the titular character, exploring the vibrant and hand-drawn environments of Zo Wanga Isle. The gameplay primarily involves interacting with characters, collecting and combining items, and utilizing voodoo spells to progress the story.
The game world is divided into various detailed and visually appealing locations, which you can freely explore. You must closely examine your surroundings to locate interactive elements, collect items, and uncover clues to solve puzzles. The puzzles typically follow the classic point-and-click formula, but with a unique twist – using the right voodoo spell from "Grammy's Book of Voodoo." These spells, unlocked by gathering the necessary ingredients, often provide the key to overcoming obstacles or unlocking new areas. While the puzzles are not overly difficult, they are well-integrated into the narrative and encourage creative thinking.
You manage the protagonist's inventory, which you can access at any time. Interacting with items in the world and combining them in the inventory is a core mechanic. The interface for examining and using items is straightforward, with a simple hold-to-examine and click-to-use system. In addition to item-based puzzles, the game features a significant amount of dialogue and character interactions, which are generally well-written and feature a mix of humor, mystery, and character development.
The pacing is relaxed, allowing you to take your time exploring the environment and conversing with characters. While the overall narrative progression is linear, the game does offer some branching dialogue options and minor variations in the ending, adding a sense of player agency and replayability.
