The Dame Was Loaded is a detective noir point-and-click adventure game released for the Philips CD-i platform, among others, during the mid-1990s. It features FMV (full motion video) and puts players in the role of a private investigator named Scott Anger, who is reminiscent of characters from classic detective novels. Players navigate through conversational encounters and clue-gathering scenes to solve a missing persons case. The game blends the film noir atmosphere with interactive gameplay to create an engaging mystery experience. Its precise release year on CD-i can be challenging to pinpoint due to limited documentation on this platform, but the game was generally available in the gaming market around 1996, and its genre is adventure with a strong focus on detective fiction.
