How it feels
A moody point-and-click detective story that feels like navigating a shadowy, morally complex 1950s crime comic.

What players say
Players love the noir story, art style, and jazz soundtrack, but the game is marred by slow movement, clunky object interactions, frustrating quick-time events, and performance issues that can crash the Steam Deck. Opinion is divided on the impact of choices.
