How do 700 people vanish in a single night?

The official story says that a fire had destroyed the town, along with all but one of the town's 724 residents.

The official story is false.

You'll search the ashes of the town, and travel through its past to find out what really happened.

Funeral for the Sun is an 8 hour long detective game rooted in Latin American history that lets you travel back in time and deduce secrets beyond your wildest imaginations.

SOMETHING SLUMBERS UNDERNEATH THE TOWN

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

The game takes inspiration from real world Latin American history, which includes violence from the state as well as self-contained murders. There are some implicit suggestions of sexual content, none of which is depicted explicitly. Marijuana is used in one scene.

Some characters are seen to be racist, transphobic, xenophobic and homophobic, but this is always portrayed from a critical lens.

There is also swearing and crude language.
