# Defective Detectives 2 > New case. New problems. Old raincoat. You've been thrown out of your posh office into a windowless basement. Even rats borrow change and spit on the carpet. But when the Mayor himself is on the line, sobbing like a schoolgirl, you have no right to say "no." His wig has been stolen from his safe. But not just any wig—it's one with a government microchip that controls all the city's traffic lights. If the chip falls into the wrong hands, the city will be in a giant traffic jam, and the Sausage Baron will start selling hot dogs for a hundred bucks apiece. Welcome to the most absurd investigation of your career! GAMEPLAY Our game is a detective visual novel where you become the protagonist of a crazy story. Gameplay is entirely focused on reading text and making decisions. The fate of this city depends on your choice of line or action. GAME FEATURES: - Interactive storyline: Make choices that influence the course of the investigation. The game has one correct plot line that will lead to the solution, and one fatal dead end if you take the wrong turn! - Unique setting: Classic noir detective story, ground up with absurd humor and fast food. - Crazy opponents: Here, the villains wear crimson jackets and wield sausage nunchucks, and the main virus is an anime girl in a hot dog costume with a ketchup braid. - Colorful NPCs: Meet e-bike-riding couriers who defy gravity to earn five stars, and reclusive sysadmins guarding server rooms. - Plenty of humor: Lively dialogue and characters that will make you want to cry or order a pizza. Put on your rumpled raincoat and get ready for lots of reading and smiling. This is the LLM-readable summary for the Defective Detectives 2 game hub on OctoScout.
