Discworld Noir Full PC Game Overview

Discworld Noir Download Free Full Game is a computer 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. It was originally released in 1999 for Microsoft Windows. In 2000 it was ported to the PlayStation by Teeny Weeny Games, the resurrected form of the already insolvent Perfect. A port for the Sega Dreamcast was developed the same year but never released. Pratchett was consulted on the story and wrote some of the dialogue; he was credited in-game for causing «far too much interference.» As it is a film noir parody, the game's protagonist Lewton frequently engages in hard-boiled soliloquy, or monologue.

The game utilizes a 2D game engine using pre-rendered characters displayed against pre-rendered backgrounds. Only the main character Lewton is using a polygonal model while residing in a walking or standing pose. The game was only released in Europe, and the development team no longer exists. As a result, the game, which suffered from several minor bugs, was not patched, and like many older games, has difficulty running on more modern platforms. Discworld Noir Free Download.

The main character is Lewton, the Discworld's first and only private investigator, and former member of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch. His investigation of a brutal murder gets him involved in a sinister plot. The game's story line is a completely original creation, unlike the previous Discworld games, two of which were based on particular novels, and one of which was a mixture of elements from several. It is set in Ankh-Morpork, the largest city on the Discworld.

The game features many new characters and locales, which do not appear in the Discworld books. However, as the game is set in Ankh-Morpork, characters and locales from the books also appear, such as the Unseen University, the Dysk Theatre, Pseudopolis Yard, the City Watch and eccentric inventor Leonard da Quirm. The game's manual includes an introduction written by Discworld creator Terry Pratchett.

The moody music track, laden with ambient sound effects, was composed and recorded by British composer Paul Weir. Discworld Noir Free Download PC Game.

Rob Lord, the game's audio director is also credited as providing additional voices. Discworld Noir Download Torrent.

Familiar characters

In Discworld Noir, there are many new, original characters designed exclusively for the game. However, many classic Discworld characters appear as well. These include:

Nobby

Corporal Cecil Wormsborough St. John «Nobby» Nobbs is one of Lewton's old friends from the Ankh-Morpork City Watch. He is in various City Watch Discworld novels including Guards! Guards!, Men at Arms and The Fifth Elephant. He plays a fairly important role in the game, offering Lewton certain pieces of information. Nobby also appeared in Discworld.

Sam Vimes

Sir Samuel Vimes is the commander of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch. Vimes never really got on with Lewton while he was a member of the Watch, and has despised Lewton since he was caught taking a bribe, something Vimes has very strong views about. In a serious departure from the novels, the Vimes of the game is unprofessional and vindictive, determined to fit the crimes to Lewton.[citation needed]

Death

The familiar Grim Reaper-style character that appears in almost every Discworld novel. Death comes to take the Count's soul away later in the game and also to take an evil wizard's soul away when Lewton fights him off the Observatory roof. The only character who persists in constantly breaking the fourth wall by referencing, amongst other things, narrative causality, the gangster stereotype, and the freeform flow of the game itself. However, these references may be just observations about the nature of discworld reality, since narrative causality is a fundamental law of the discworld universe.

Death of Rats

The Grim Squeaker.

The Patrician

The Patrician Havelock Vetinari is only briefly heard through the locked double-doors of the Oblong Office. He talks to Sam Vimes and is mentioned throughout the game several times.

Leonard da Quirm

A genius and inventor who is locked up in the Palace Cells for his own safety or, rather, for that of the rest of civilization, given how dangerous some of his inventions have been. Because food, lodgings, peace and quiet and all the raw materials he needs are provided for free, Leonard doesn't mind his incarceration at all. The Patrician occasionally finds uses for his creativity and some of his creations. Lewton encounters him via a secret doorway in his prison cell.

Captain Jenkins

Captain of the Cargo ship the Milka who talks to Lewton in the Cafe Ankh. He appears in Jingo.

Gaspode the Wonder Dog

The famous talking dog of Ankh-Morpork. Gaspode teaches Lewton how to use his werewolf abilities. He also appears in a number of Discworld novels including Moving Pictures, Men at Arms and The Truth. Discworld Noir for PC.
