How it feels

You play as a detective in a bleak futuristic city, slowly unraveling a conspiracy through investigation and conversation, with a heavy, contemplative tone.

What players say

Players praise the visual design and noir atmosphere but split on the gameplay. Many say the investigation mechanics are on rails, letting you only find clues when the script permits. Common complaints include clunky controls, a rushed final act, and performance problems on recommended hardware.
