❤ Relive the Day and Prevent Grisly Murders

As Lafcadio Boone, you awaken on the floor of a room in the extravagant Sexy Brutale casino mansion, wearing a mask with a bloody handprint. You soon realize that you are trapped in a 12-hour time loop, where the guests of the manor are being systematically murdered by the staff. Your goal is to observe the patterns of these killings, then manipulate the environment and events to prevent the impending deaths.

❤ Rewind Time and Gain New Powers

Whenever the clock strikes midnight, time rewinds to 12 PM, resetting the day. However, Lafcadio retains his knowledge and any special abilities he has acquired from previous loops. As you save each guest from their gruesome fate, you are rewarded with a new supernatural power, such as the ability to manipulate the flow of time or amplify distant sounds. These upgrades are crucial for progressing deeper into the mansion and uncovering more of the mystery.

❤ Stealthy Observation and Environmental Manipulation

Since Lafcadio cannot directly interact with the other characters, the gameplay revolves around stealthy observation. You must hide in closets, peek through keyholes, and eavesdrop on conversations to learn the schedules and behaviors of the guests and staff. Armed with this knowledge, you can then strategically manipulate the environment, such as moving or disabling murder weapons, to prevent the killings.

❤ Detailed Mapping and Note-Taking

To keep track of the complex sequences of events, the game provides an interactive map that automatically records the locations and movements of all the characters. Additionally, Lafcadio's journal logs important information and clues that you discover, creating a comprehensive understanding of the manor's dark mysteries.

❤ Challenging but Fair Puzzles

While the core loop of observation and manipulation is relatively straightforward, the puzzles themselves offer a satisfying level of challenge. You must piece together intricate sequences of environmental interactions to devise solutions that prevent each grisly murder. However, the game avoids frustrating trial-and-error, as the information needed to solve these puzzles is available through careful exploration of the mansion.
