How it feels
A deliberately paced, pixelated detective quest through a rain-slicked cyberpunk Singapore where every clue must be pieced together with careful attention and real-world research.

What players say
Players praise the cybernoir pixel art and the novel mechanic of solving puzzles by doing real-world research, but many are frustrated by bugs, a restrictive save system, and tedious travel between locations. Reviews split: some love the detective legwork, others find it tedious and the puzzles either too easy or too obscure.
