I recently aquirred Discworld Noir, haven´t had the time to try it out yet though.
I´ve read in reviews it´s quite good, any opinions, is it worth my time?

Depends on your taste in adventures...

If you don't hate listening to a large number of fairly long but interesting and funny dialogues (you can do that with your eyes closed because there's not much going on visually), go for it. It's a terrific game, with a creative twist, unlike any other adventure.

Be sure to download the patch, it's a buggy little bastard.

I wish i could play that game but for some reason it doesn't run properly on my pc.

I enjoyed it and the voice talent wasn't half bad either which is always good. There was a really original twist in the later parts of the game as well which added some nice originality to the game.

Spoiler:
The being a werewolf and identifying/tracking by smell setup

I found the closing chapter itself a bit disappointing. The end seemed very quick after all you'd been through.

Still well worth a go though.

I could only play it on my XP after I'd exchanged the .exe file with the one in the patch. You can get find discnoir-fix.xip at the home of the underdogs, I think.

just the atmosphere makes this a fantastic game.
everything else is just bonus
