Inspector Wombat

Inspector Wombat was one of those point and click games that felt typical for the Flash era. You'd find it on a gaming portal, a short adventure to fill a break. The premise was straightforward: a crime in a museum needed solving.

You control the inspector, a wombat in a trench coat, navigating static scenes with your mouse. The main objective is to find stolen paintings by examining everything. You click on objects to pick them up or inspect them, and you combine items in your inventory to solve simple puzzles. The game moves at a relaxed pace, without a timer, but some logic leaps can make progress feel slow. It feels like a quiet, methodical hunt through a few rooms.
