MOUSE: P.I. For Hire

MOUSE: P.I. For Hire from Fumi Games is the kind of stylistic gamble that either lands hard or doesn't land at all — a first-person shooter rendered entirely in hand-drawn rubber-hose animation, frame-by-frame, evoking 1930s Steamboat Willie cartoons but with actual gunplay underneath. Black-and-white throughout, with Cuphead-tier art polish and a jazz-noir detective story holding it all together.

You're Jack Pepper, private investigator in a corrupt rodent metropolis, and the campaign mixes classic FPS shootouts with detective sequences (interrogations, evidence boards, dialogue choices that affect routes). It's pulp noir storytelling carrying the weight; the cartoon visuals are the hook that gets you through the door.
