How it feels

A methodical hidden-object and puzzle investigation through a dark, noir-tinged crime story with a first-person perspective.

What players say

Players say this is one of the longer hidden object games and praise the sharp graphics, varied hidden object scenes, and a grounded Victorian-era story. However, many note the lack of Steam achievements, some puzzles are so counter-intuitive they require a skip, and a few report a bug causing crashes or a blank screen on AMD RX6600 cards.
