Inspector Waffles Early Days

From the Devs

Inspector Waffles Early Days is the prequel of Inspector Waffles, the adventure/detective game released in 2021. This new game was made for Game Boy Color, and is also available for PC!



This time, follow a younger Waffles, a cunning and witty cat, in his first days as an Inspector who wants to prove to everyone that he is more than just a rookie. Your partner, Pancakes, is an experienced Inspector and probably the only one at the police station that isn’t an incompetent policecat.

With this top-tier team, catching bad guys could sound easy, but beware… Your future worst enemy is hiding in the shadows, waiting for you to make the first mistake.

A detective adventure game

Inspector Waffles Early Days is a top-down detective adventure with point-and-click mechanics and puzzles to solve, inspired by classic Game Boy games.

The game will be divided in 5 distinct chapters: in each of them, you’ll have to solve a case. It could be theft, arson, drug traffic… you’ll still have three main actions to do:

Find clues

Inspect crime scenes, follow culprit pawsteps, interact with decors… There will be a lot of different ways to find clues!

Interrogate animal of interest

Suspects, witnesses, victims… you’ll meet a full cast of anthropomorphic animals who will have maybe a lot to say to you, or maybe some secrets to hide.
Interrogating them will allow you to know the truth from the falsehood: ask the right questions, and use the right clue to prove them wrong!

Report to your partner

At the end of each case, after that you have interrogated all suspects/witnesses, you need to report to your partner, Pancakes. He’ll ask you a couple of questions: It's up to you to prove that you have understood who is the culprit!
