Arsene Lupine: Once A Thief is a point & click adventure game in which the action is shown in isometric view.

Gameplay

The main character - the iconic Arsene Lupin - together with Leblanc, tells a few of the most famous stories by the fireplace, in which we actively participate. The gameplay sheds a completely new light on stories such as The Arrest of Arsene Lupin or Herlock Sholmes Arrives Too Late, as we can control both the charismatic thief and his antagonist, Detective Ganimard.

The locations in the game are full of various puzzles, which we solve in disguise as Lupin to outwit the law enforcement.

In turn, when playing as a detective, we take on his role and carry out an investigation. During this, we search for evidence at the crime scene, interrogate witnesses and suspects, and create timelines, placing all the clues on a board known from detective stories.
