The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A methodical, somber journey through memory and a snowy small-town mystery, balancing deliberate puzzle-solving with a reflective, melancholic tone.

About
Developed by 500 Miles Studio, Aya is a graphic adventure where we will control the forensic investigator who gives the game its name. Starting from her immediate present, in which our protagonist suffers an end-stage Alzheimer, we will travel back eighteen years to Havenmist, her hometown, a small mountain-town, where as players, we must solve the so-called Iscariot case. Howeder, our adventure will take us along the Ashmore state, while we sneak into the lives of dozens of characters, whose secrets lie under that isolated place of eternal snows. Throughout the investigation, we will perfom autopsies to obtain evidences, we will process crime scenes in search of clues, we will analyse the muerderer´s rituality with which commits his acts, we will investigate the background of the different victims to discover why they were chosen, we will interrogate to possible suspects to wrench them a confession or to hear their testimony, we will raise hypotheses based on the proofs collected, and finally, we will reveal the motivations of its author and the meaning of his "work".
