In a world where shadows live as sentient beings, you play as Alex, a quirky shadow detective who solves crimes using the habits and secrets of shadows. The city of Shadewood is teetering on the brink of chaos as shadows begin to disappear, sparking unrest among both the living and the shadowy inhabitants. Engage in witty dialogues, uncover dark secrets, and navigate the interplay of light and shadow as you explore an immersive text-based environment. But beware—some shadows might be more than just reflections of their owners, and not all of them want to play nice.
