❤ Gameplay Mechanics: Chronological Detective Work

Players step into the shoes of a time-traveling operative who must prevent a fatal house fire by manipulating six characters' decisions. The core mechanic immerses players in: exploring a smoke-damaged house in the present, watching holographic scenes from a precise 7-day timeline, strategically nudging character choices to create survival scenarios, and jumping freely between 204 distinct narrative events.

❤ Dynamic Timeline Interaction

Players track approximately 200 interconnected scenes. Each choice triggers cascading consequences across character relationships. The innovative interface allows players to map how tiny decisions create massive narrative shifts, instantly rewind and test alternative scenarios, and uncover hidden narrative branches.

❤ Investigative Strategies

Players can unravel the story through multiple approaches: strict chronological progression, deep-diving into individual character arcs, reverse-engineering final outcomes, and forensically uncovering concealed information.

❤ Consequence-Driven Storytelling

Decisions produce nuanced, realistic ripple effects. Minor choices subtly reshape scene dynamics. Major interventions can completely rewrite event sequences, generate unexpected character interactions, and fundamentally alter personal trajectories.

❤ Player Experience Innovations

No predetermined 'perfect' narrative exists. Multiple valid resolution pathways. Requires strategic, empathetic decision-making. Rewards methodical exploration and emotional intelligence.

❤ Gameplay Complexity

Moderate challenge in optimizing character survival. Demands careful observation and logical reasoning. Provides an immersive investigative experience without traditional puzzle constraints.
