In a surreal world where shadows have minds of their own, you play as an eccentric private detective named Zoe Nightshade. Awakened in a shadowy city where the inhabitants' shadows have mysteriously gone awry, Zoe must investigate bizarre cases brought to her doorstep. Each case reveals comedic and dramatic layers of both the shadow's personalities and the people casting them. With a stylized narrative that pushes both humor and intrigue, players must make choices that influence the unfolding stories, leading to varied outcomes based on their decisions. The challenge? Understand the difference between the shadows and their owners, solve the mysteries behind each case, and confront the existential question: are we defined by our shadows or they by us?
