In a bustling city where shadows have a life of their own, you play as Max, a disgraced former detective turned shadow consultant. When the city's shadows start disappearing, causing hilariously chaotic repercussions—like flipping out of control in dramatic situations—you must navigate through a series of bizarre and humorous investigations. Interact with eccentric characters, unravel a conspiracy that blends metaphysical absurdity with slapstick humor, and figure out who, or what, is taking the shadows. The game offers branching paths, quirky dialogue options, and incorporates visual puzzles that rely on light and positioning.
