About the Game

This is a Lovecraftian visual novel where you play as a private detective—solving cases, exploring a decaying city, and uncovering truths long buried beneath the tide of time.

Set in an alternate 1920s, the story takes place in Blockwings—a coastal ruin of a city that should’ve been forgotten. But here, the past never truly dies. You’ve been invited to investigate a missing person case, only to find yourself ensnared in a web of lost memories, ancient cults, and a stranger who claims to know you.

Reality twists and warps as the tide rises. Will you fight against fate, or surrender to the sea?
