Players Like...

❤ Dual Protagonists Offer Distinct Perspectives

Players take control of two protagonists - a magician and a private eye - each with access to different information and unique skills. This dual perspective allows players to experience the mystery from varying angles, requiring them to strategically switch between characters to piece together the full story.

❤ Carefully Manage Limited Action Points

The game's action point (AP) system restricts the number of actions players can take before time advances. Users must thoughtfully decide which clues to pursue, locations to investigate, and characters to interrogate in order to maximize their progress. AP can be increased by completing objectives and leveling up.

❤ Expose Contradictions to Uncover Deceptions

The narrative unfolds in a non-linear fashion, encouraging players to gather evidence and combine conflicting reports using the unique "Contradiction" mechanic. Exposing these contradictions opens new avenues of investigation, leading to a deeper understanding of the characters and their motives.

❤ Immerse Yourself in Circus Performer Backstories

While marketed as a detective mystery, the game places a strong emphasis on the depth and quality of its character interactions and backstories. The large cast of performers, each with their own goals, histories, and secrets, is a major draw for players who enjoy narrative-driven experiences.

❤ Encourage Repeated Playthroughs for Unique Endings

The game offers significant replay value, as players can uncover different clues and secrets on subsequent playthroughs, leading to unique unlockable endings for the major characters. This encourages users to explore the story from multiple perspectives, further enhancing the overall experience.
