A moody, visually striking point-and-click adventure with a darkly comic tone and a relaxed, puzzly pace.

What players say
Players praise the Afro-Caribbean aesthetic and soundtrack, calling it visually unique with a noir atmosphere. The first chapter is short and serves mostly as setup for the larger story, with characters that are instantly likeable and puzzles that are not too hard.
