About the Game

You will experience the story through the eyes of Jack Mason, the young detective in a small town near the N sea. Facing hardships of being among the shunned colorblind minority - the Squints, he tries his best to focus on the brighter things in life. Winning respect from the true-born Imperials by skill and dedication, Jack plans out his future with his loved one. Yet everything changes, then an eerie murder smashes the tranquil atmosphere in town.

Genie’s story has a special place between horror, suspense and detective genres mixing elements from all three of them and spicing them up with human relationships. The main focus goes with suspense/thriller theme. The story tries to catch the swirl of emotions wherever you play hide and seek with a murderous maniac or in a less dramatic situation.

Features:

A non-linear storyline with several endings that depend on your choices.

Brush and pencil - traditional art gives the story a unique look.

Personal reading experience - choose your an appropriate font from more stylish to classic variations.
