Hauma – A Detective Noir Story has been available for PC since September 2023. Soon it’ll be the turn of Nintendo Switch owners to delve into this visual novel mystery. Developer SenAm Games and publisher Assemble Entertainment have confirmed a Summer 2024 launch window.
In this interactive visual novel, you step into the shoes of former detective Judith. She uncovers a conspiracy amongst the city’s upper echelons of society after a series of suspicious events force her out of retirement. Set within the Bavarian capital of Munich, you’ll be able to explore real-world locations recreated in comic book-inspired visual style.
Discover A Detective Noir Story
Like any good detective game, as you explore Munich you’ll need to solve puzzles and riddles while putting together clues to make investigative deductions. You’ll have access to a mindboard to aid the investigation, which functions like an inventory containing items and thoughts.

- More than Meets the Eye: Embark on a journey of deduction and intrigue, uncover the secrets of Munich’s elite corrupt society, and piece together the puzzle of the conspiracy that lies within.
- Enter the Mind Palace: Become acquainted with the mindboard, an innovative inventory of interconnected items and thoughts that, when weaved together correctly, uncover clues and unravel mysteries.
- Draw Your Own Conclusions: Utilize engaging investigation mechanics, including a variety of puzzles and challenging dialogue riddles.

Assemble Entertainment seems to love its detective games, having recently released Between Horizons last month.
