Released today on Steam, Casebook 1899 – The Leipzig Murders is a point-and-click murder mystery set in Germany at the very end of the 19th century.

You play Detective Joseph Kreiser, working alongside public prosecutor Gustav Möbius, unraveling four different cases in an industrial city caught between progress and turmoil.

Whenever a game tries to channel that old DOS adventure energy, I get excited. Growing up on Sierra and LucasArts, there was nothing quite like the ritual of clicking every pixel, stumbling onto a clue, and piecing puzzles together with your brain instead of a waypoint marker. Casebook 1899 embraces that tradition. It doesn’t hold your hand, it doesn’t let you skip forward if you’re stumped. Some players will curse it. Others—like me—will thrive.

The presentation hits hard. VGA-inspired visuals mean chunky pixels, but there’s real detail in the environments. Every crime scene looks meticulously staged, every cutscene animated with care. This game has been in the works for four years, and it shows. It feels like one person’s love letter to an era, which is exactly what it is—Gregor Müller, a solo dev working out of Leipzig, put this whole thing together under the Homo Narrans Studio label.

Then there’s the voice acting. Full German audio with English subtitles—and that choice makes all the difference. Hearing the dialogue in the language of the setting grounds you right there on the cobblestones of Leipzig. It’s not an afterthought. It’s atmosphere.

The soundtrack, composed by Samantha Foster, leans gentle and ambient. It doesn’t dominate, but it pulls you deeper into each investigation.

Mechanically, it’s pure mouse-driven adventuring. Keyboard shortcuts exist, but if you’re hoping to slump on the couch with a gamepad, forget it. Honestly, that’s the right call. Point-and-click games are best played hunched over a desk, notebook at hand, diagrams scrawled in the margins. And yes—there’s a notebook system in the game itself, along with a deduction board that can steer you toward multiple endings depending on what you conclude.

Technically, it’s refreshingly inclusive: native Windows, Mac, and Linux builds. No Proton needed. And it’ll run on just about anything—a dual-core CPU, 2GB of RAM, half a gig of disk space. Steam Deck? Easy. Your grandma’s old laptop? Probably.

Launch price is C$21.14 (US$17.99, with a 10% discount running through September 11). That’s more than fair for a game born from Kickstarter funding and the grit of one developer. You’re not just buying a detective game—you’re buying a carefully reconstructed slice of 1899, pixel by pixel, voice by voice.

🔥BOHRTURM BESETZT!

So sieht das aus, wenn mutige Menschen
den Gasausstieg selber in die Hand
nehmen. Dieser Gasbohrturm
in Reichling ist BESETZT!

Die bayerische Landesregierung und vor allem Hubert Aiwanger wollen hier in Reichling mitten in Bayern neu nach Gas bohren. Und sie planen neun weitere Standorte.
Die Menschen hier vor Ort protestieren dagegen, weil es wird direkt neben ihrer Trinkwasserquelle gebohrt.
Das ist nur der bayerische Vorgeschmack auf den deutschen Gaswahn. Denn die Wirtschaftsministerin Katharina Reiche möchte bis zu 50 neue Gaskraftwerke bauen. Das ist super gefährlich, weil Gas ist Klima- zerstörerisch, so wie Kohle und Öl. Es ist super teuer, treibt die Preise in die Höhe und es macht abhängig.

Wenn Aiwanger und Co. das Gas Kopf steigt, dann klettern wir ihnenauf die Türme.

Gasausstieg jetzt!

Climate Justice Now!

@tiotasram i've suggested to the linux foundation they should consider a policy for no AI code in their projects for that reason, but so far haven't heard back. qemu for example has adopted that policy, from what i've heard.
in reply to ell1e coding things

@tiotasram perhaps more people should suggest a no AI policy to some of their favorite FOSS projects. if somebody here knows a kernel dev, might be worth bringing up.

Spahns Maskendeals: Eine neue Spiegel-Recherche zeigt, wie ein Unternehmen vom Gesundheitsministerium Maskenaufträge und Steuergeld bekam, das gerade eine Woche zuvor gegründet wurde - und deren Gründer aus Spahns Dunstkreis stammten.

spiegel.de/panorama/jens-spahn…

Spahn und das Gesundheitsministerium müssen erklären, wieso ein 30 Millionen Euro Auftrag an eine Firma vergeben wurde, die zu diesem Zeitpunkt gerade mal eine Woche alt war und die keinerlei Expertise oder Erfahrung im Masken- oder auch nur Textilgeschäft vorweisen konnte!

Spahn bestreitet laut Spiegel jede Beteiligung an der Vergabe. Doch ohne weitere Aufklärung erscheint ein privilegierter Zugang zu Spahn oder seinem Umfeld im Ministerium als einzige Erklärung für einen so rätselhaften Vorgang.
