The narrative is the puzzle itself. You have no power, no resources, but a cryptic force sends you to face the impossible, where you have to see through your opponents lies before they see through yours, be they human or not.

Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access is used to refine the game's core narrative knowledge-based progression gameplay. Players learn about the world through subtext, dialogue, and character interactions then apply that knowledge to choose the correct skill checks and progress.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Very roughly four years. But the early access release will have act 1 with arc 1, 2, and 3. Each arc is 2 to 3 hours long.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to have all 9 levels or arcs and will be roughly 3-4 times longer than the early access version. Every arc is planned to generally more branching story paths and/or hidden story sections than the previous arcs. Act 2 is planned to introduce a feature that's an extension of the current skill system to enhance immersion and increase complexity.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The early access version on release will have act 1. Next version will have act 2 and then act 3.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No. The price will be the same whether it is in early access or fully released.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community will be asked for feedback, specifically on what they think about the story and how well its contents work alongside the gameplay, whether it is too confusing or unsatisfying or other issues alongside feedback on what they think about the game and wish to add or be fixed in the future. Feedback can be sent using discord or reddit.”

About This Game

Everyone has their own version of the truth. Your job is to figure out who's lying.

A psychological horror investigation game with hand-drawn watercolor art and Obra Dinn-style deduction.

You are a nobody. No skills, no connections, no power, barely holding yourself together. A powerful entity sends you to neutralize opponents. He might want you dead, tortured, or changed – you can't know until you piece it together. Your mind is your only weapon.

How it works

Investigate characters, learn their hidden motives, then use the right dialogue and skill checks to manipulate, expose, or survive them. Every conversation gives you information that unlocks new ways to confront enemies and progress the story. All action and skill options are always available. Choose the combination that will work on each person. Wrong choices fail; the right one advances the story.

Hand-drawn visuals – A painterly watercolor world where reality, memory, and nightmares blur.
Atmospheric soundscape – Ambient music and sound design that deepen immersion and build tension.
Catharsis through understanding – The thrill of being the smartest person in the room. Not by brute force, but seeing the truth everyone else missed.

Are you perceptive enough to see the story for what it is? And clever enough to use it as your greatest weapon?
