A moody, noir-infused detective story with pixel art and a haunting saxophone soundtrack, played at a deliberate pace through dialogue and puzzle-solving.

What players say
Players praise this prequel for giving them a new character duo and the ability to switch between the living medium and the ghost, solving puzzles from both sides. The story has only two cases but is described as a moody, bittersweet ghost story with strong voice acting and music.
