About the Game

FIND A SERIAL KILLER BEFORE YOUR MIND COLLAPSES

You are Jeff Dowliff — a detective whose memory is slowly deteriorating.

Investigate murders using:

- newspapers

- polaroids

- evidence boards

- handwritten notes

But reality itself becomes unreliable.

Doors lead back to your apartment.

Televisions speak directly to you.

A blink can completely change the scene.

Can you still solve the case when your own mind sabotages the investigation?

FEATURES

 INVESTIGATE IMPOSSIBLE CRIMES

Search crime scenes, analyze clues, connect evidence, and uncover hidden truths.

REALITY CANNOT BE TRUSTED

Hallucinations distort environments, memories change details, and familiar places become impossible spaces.

BUILD YOUR OWN INVESTIGATION

Use evidence boards, handwritten notes, polaroids, and newspapers to track suspects and connect the case.

A WORLD THAT GASLIGHTS YOU

Doors may lead somewhere else.

Objects disappear.

Televisions speak directly to you.

DESCEND INTO PARANOIA

The deeper the investigation goes, the more unstable your mind becomes.
