Wishlist on Steam Now

Amplified Games Ltd and Posh Cat Studio are pleased to announce that Little Problems: A Cozy Detective Game will launch on Steam on Tuesday, 9 September 2025. Players interested in finding out more before the game’s release can view the new trailer here.

Little Problems is the debut release from a small, passionate, female-led Indonesian developer, Posh Cat Studio. Having always been a fan of the detective genre in comics, games, movies - and with an interest in Lovecraft and horror - Posh Cat started work on an investigative murder mystery game. However they quickly realised spending months or even years immersed in crime and horror content might be harmful to their mental health.

Melisa, Lead Developer and Founder at Posh Cat Studio, said: “We turned to cozy games and cute pictures to escape the blood and gore. Little Problems was born out of a love for wholesome, safe and approachable content but still with a passion for investigation and detection.”

“Little Problems focuses on solving mysteries based on life’s minor inconveniences and everyday misunderstandings, and of course, little problems. In Little Problems, detective work is about connecting with friends, understanding the small yet significant issues of daily life and finding joy in the simplicity of resolution. It’s not about saving the world, it’s about enriching it, one little problem at a time.”   

In Little Problems players work through the ‘little problems’ in the life of Mary, a university freshman student. Mary oversleeps, missing the first lecture of the day. Their class assignment is due, but they've forgotten where to meet their study group! These are a few examples of everyday little problems that require some problem-solving, minor sleuthing, and resolution.
