Dirty Split (Video Game)
Dirty Split is a 2008 Point-and-Click Adventure Game by Uwe Sittig and his company Dreamagination Entertainment, created with the Wintermute Engine.

Combining the aesthetics of Film Noir and Mismatched Atomic Expressionism art style in the vein of Shag, it is set in the 1960s United States, and tells the story of private investigator Alan Baxter who is tasked with solving the murder of plastic surgeon Dr. Christopher Bedford. Baxter soon finds out that the respectable Dr. Bedford had many more skeletons in his closet than one could have imagined...

The game can be downloaded here.


This game provides examples of:

  • Camp Gay: José aka Chee Chee, the receptionist at the Rainbow Motel, is a very campy gay man who tries to flirt with Baxter.
  • The Casino: At one point, Baxter visits the Royal Flush Casino in Las Vegas to talk to the singer Mrs. Ferroux, who used to be a client of Dr. Bedford.
  • Evil Twin: Bedford had an identical twin brother, Joe Castafiore, who was involved with The Mafia.
  • Faking the Dead: Christopher Bedford is actually alive: he killed his identical Evil Twin brother Joe Castafiore and made it appear like it was he who had been killed.
  • Shout-Out: When Baxter knocks on Bedford's door in Aspen, and he asks who's there, one of the answer options is: "I'm selling these fine leather jackets".
