A slow-burn, emotionally heavy detective story told from a 2D side-scrolling perspective, where exploring a small town and piecing together a tragedy feels intimate and haunting.

What players say
Players praise the emotional story and soundtrack, but report technical bugs, no voice acting, and some frustrating UI issues. The mystery keeps you engaged despite simple puzzles and a short playtime.
