About the Game

Digital can be forged, but analog is absolute.

In a near-future where AI advancements allow media and records to be seamlessly manipulated, digital proof is no longer trusted. Someone out there is even rewriting human memories. Every day, crime scenes, victims' faces, and yesterday's reality are silently wiped away...

However, two things remain untouched by AI's grasp: Analog, and the Dokkaebi.

Enter Philip Kang—the camera-headed Dokkaebi detective who possesses the power of both. Step into his shoes to navigate through fabricated lies, uncover the buried truth, and solve the mysteries.

Question the Suspects

Gather new information by speaking with those involved in the case. But beware—what they tell you may not always be the truth. Doubt everything. Even false testimonies can become vital evidence.

Investigate the Crime Scene

The physical traces left at the scene are your most reliable evidence. Not even advanced AI technology can manipulate the physical clues left behind. Scour every corner of the crime scene and meticulously gather your clues.

Piece Together the Evidence

The clues you collect are stepping stones to new revelations. Place two pieces of evidence into the Darkroom slots to "develop" them. A photograph and a memo, a note and a testimony, a statement and an alibi—depending on what you combine, scattered facts will emerge as a brand-new truth.

Shatter the Lies!

Once you have secured enough solid evidence, it's time to close in on the truth. Use the information you've gathered to pinpoint contradictions in the suspects' claims.

If you've organized your evidence well, you will be able to expose their lies and bring the ultimate truth to light.
