In a quirky urban setting, players take on the role of a wise-cracking private investigator who is embroiled in an unusual case: a series of bizarre thefts where the thief leaves a shadow behind that no one can trace. As players navigate through a colorful cast of eccentric characters—each more oddball than the last—they must solve clever riddles, interact with lively shadow puppets, and piece together a meta-narrative that reveals the social commentary behind the shadows that haunt their city. The game is packed with humor, odd twists, and intriguing side quests that play with the concept of identity and perception.
