How it feels

A smooth, atmospheric live-action murder mystery where you feel like a detective piecing together clues through relaxed interviews and exploration.

What players say

Players enjoy the campy FMV acting and the contradiction-based interrogation mechanic. Many say the mystery gets weird near the end, and some find the final resolution unsatisfying.
