About This Game

A City That Hides Its Emotions. A Case Only They Can Solve.

In AUREX, a city built on control, emotion is deemed inefficient. People learn to hide what they feel.

You are SOLDA, a special investigator with the Central Order Directorate (C.O.D.). Search crime scenes and use your emotion scanner to see what people are feeling beneath their words. A voice stays steady, but the scanner catches a flicker of unease. Suddenly, the same statement sounds different.

SOLDA is an episodic sci-fi mystery visual novel about uncovering the truth through investigation and emotional analysis.

Gameplay

• Investigate crime scenes — Search the scene for clues hidden in objects and records.

• Question suspects with the emotion scanner — Visualize their emotional responses and spot the moments when what they feel clashes with what they say.

• Piece together the timeline — Arrange and connect the evidence in chronological order to reconstruct what happened.

• Solve investigation puzzles — Work through puzzles along the way to uncover the next clue.

Features

• Brutalist sci-fi noir brought to life through towering concrete structures and a muted color palette.

• An episodic mystery that reveals more of life in AUREX with every investigation.

Story

It's an ordinary morning, and SOLDA boards the train to work. Amid the familiar sights of her commute, something about one man catches her attention. Before she can put her finger on what feels off, every light in the carriage goes out.

When the lights come back on, a passenger named Mes is dead.

SOLDA listens to the passengers' accounts and pieces together the evidence left on the train. The more closely she examines the moment the lights went out, the more those ordinary minutes beforehand begin to look different.

What did SOLDA miss before the lights went out?
