In this text-based adventure, players assume the role of Alex, a quirky detective in a world where shadows have personalities and opinions of their own. One day, Alex discovers that a particularly snarky shadow has gone missing right before an important investigation. As they navigate through a city filled with shadowy inhabitants, players must interact with various shadows—each with their own unique traits—to solve the mystery, uncover the truth about shadow magic, and even confront their own insecurities reflected in their shadow. Along the way, players will handle witty conversations, mind-bending puzzles, and make choices that impact their relationship with their own shadow and the outcome of the story.
