In a bustling metropolis where greetings are a currency, players assume the role of Max, an underappreciated urban barista with a knack for eavesdropping. When Max accidentally uncovers a series of mysterious, alarming hellos exchanged among eccentric city dwellers, they are thrust into an absurd investigation to decipher their meanings. Players must navigate through quirky neighborhoods, question decidedly oddball characters, and collect clues hidden in casual conversations—all while managing Max's own unremarkable life filled with coffee spills and awkward encounters. Each decision shapes the unfolding narrative, leading to unexpected allies and laugh-out-loud moments in the quest to uncover the truth about the baffling hellos.
