Night Call
A mysterious serial killer stalks the streets of modern-day Paris. The body count rises, and the police are no closer to catching the culprit. You are a taxi driver and survivor to the killer’s most recent attacks, having barely escaped with your life. You have seven nights to help find the killer, or the police will pin it on you. These next few shifts will be far from ordinary or safe… Night Call is a non-linear, narrative-driven noire investigation game. You are no detective, but you do have a gift. Around you, people feel more at ease. They talk. They share their thoughts, their emotions, their stories… their secrets. To passengers, you are more than just a driver; you are also a friend, a confidant, a shrink. A voyeur catching a glimpse under the masked but very real lives throughout the City of Light. And you’ll need to play these roles well if you want to catch the killer. Use the limited time you have available each night to gather clues while earning money to pay your bills. Drive passengers to their destinations, hear their stories and choose your responses carefully—some are just regular people with a tale to tell, while others might reveal a clue that’s key to your investigation. Follow the right leads to uncover new info about the suspects, and don’t forget to make enough money to buy gas and pay your bills.

Nice character development on the citizen fare of nighttime Paris. Well-written dialogue without any discernible mistakes. Art is fantastic, great style. Enjoyable game. Got a really good feel for the primary character.

This game instantly immerses you in the noir vibe of nighttime Paris.Dialogues are brilliant - vivid, emotional, and incredibly engaging.Every passenger brings a unique story,and thanks to the excellent writing,they feel real and memorable.I think I will get all the achievements in the game one day.The melodies in the game are moody, stylish, ambient, and perfectly matched to the tone of the game.They create an atmosphere of mystery, comfort, and a hint of melancholy.I love it.I am happy to have found this game. If only it had more languages available, it would definitely attract even more fans around the world.But if you speak one of the languages featured in the game - buy it!I have experienced all three endings, and it was truly a fascinating journey.

This game has it's own vibe, you'll be immersed into this game and the night life of a cab driver and you won't even realize until you check the time on your phone IRL. And don't even get me started on the soundtracks, next level. 10/10.

Not exactly what I expected but still nice.
I think you should treat this as an atmospheric experience more than anything else.
The detective part doesn't work very well sadly. I don't think there is enough to go on frankly, be that information, deduction, mechanics to support those.
If you are in for the mood and the dialogue you can have a good time.
Also you can seriously fall asleep to this, if you are playing late at night, almost happened to me.

A great game, unfortunately brought down by a massive amount of bugs. Well worth the time tho.

Game so good I had to get it twice.
I love this game its almost therapy to me talking to random strangers as a taxi driver in Paris. and on top of that there's an engrossing killer case that you must solve. An absolutely vibing soundtrack.
Hands down my favorite indie title to date!

I've played this game for almost 9 hours and barely got halfway through the achievements. I think that this could potentially be a bit overwhelming for players. Other than that, my thoughts on this game are mostly positive.
The concept of the game is a bit similar to Road 96, another indie french game, which relies on almost the same map system and your choices actually impact the story. It's also a bit similar to Ace Attorney where the game feels more like a visual novel but you actually have to think through the evidences and make a verdict to catch the culprit. Because I like this type of games, I've quite enjoyed this one too. My only criticism would be that the cases were quite easy to solve, even in the hardest difficulty. That said, building a more atmospheric and narrative driven game rather than challenging players with the mystery could have been an active decision made by the devs, which I respect.
