Whose Hellos Are These, Anyway?

In a small, quirky town where the peculiar residents speak in riddles and phrases often borrowed from obscure literature, you take on the role of a private detective hired to solve the mysterious theft of every hello ever uttered in town. As you navigate the dialogue-driven landscape, you'll encounter eccentric characters like a librarian with a penchant for puns, a philosopher who can't stop quoting himself, and a conspiracy theorist convinced that greetings are a government plot. Each conversation unravels unique clues while testing your ability to decipher their whimsical language. Will you crack the case before the town is left in awkward silence?
