Discworld Noir

Discworld Noir is a computer game and a video game based on Terry Pratchett's Discworld comic fantasy novels, and unlike the previous Discworld games is both an example and parody of the noir genre. The game was developed by Perfect Entertainment and published by GT Interactive, and was released for the PC and Playstation in 1999.

The game utilizes a 3D graphics-based game engine, with polygonical characters displayed against pre-rendered backgrounds. The game was only released in Europe, and the developer no longer exists. As a result, the game was not patched and, like many older games, has difficulty running in Windows XP.

Most characters in the game, including the protagonist (Lewton, Discworld's first and only private investigator), are new characters, rather than characters borrowed from the Discworld books. Many locations are likewise new, although the game is set in the city of Ankh-Morpork. The game manual includes an introduction written by Terry Pratchett himself.
