In a world where the line between the living and the dead is thinner than ever, players assume the role of a paranormal investigator in a haunted esoteric bookstore. Guided by a quirky AI assistant named Whimsy, players must communicate with trapped spirits to unravel the bookstore's dark history. Using text commands, players will piece together ghostly memories, solve riddles from beyond, and deal with both helpful and hostile spirits. The stakes rise as they discover the truth that the bookstore isn't just a repository of stories—it's a nexus of unfinished tales that threaten to spill into the real world.
