In a quirky urban fantasy world, players take on the role of Gemma, a reluctant 'shadow-walker' who discovers that shadows hold secrets to an underlying mystery in her city. As Gemma navigates through vibrant locations—from underground markets to shadow-infused coffee shops—she communicates with various shadow beings, each with a personality and a story. Players must solve puzzles, gather clues, and make choices that influence not just their own fate, but the fate of the shadows and their human counterparts. With humor and unexpected twists, the game takes players on an engaging journey where they must ultimately confront what it means to be 'bound' to one's own shadow.
