Step into the shoes of a struggling detective named Sam Shadow, who finds themselves caught in a perplexing case where the shadows of the living hold the secrets of the dead. In a city where every citizen’s shadow has developed its own sentience and can communicate, Sam must use these shadowy whispers to solve a series of dramatic and bizarre crimes. Players will interact with various shadows to gather clues, navigate a twisting narrative, and confront their own past—all while facing shadowy adversaries who wish to silence them permanently. Each choice affects the city's fate and the shadows' rebellion against their captors.
