How it feels

A gloomy, text-driven detective mystery where you guide a broken war veteran through a noir-tinged investigation and his own guilt.

What players say

Players praise the film-noir atmosphere and art, but warn the game is essentially a one-hour chapter that feels like a demo. Combat is repeatedly called frustrating and poorly balanced. Multiple reviewers note the developer missed promised chapter release dates and went silent, making the game's future uncertain.
