Released on September 26, 2017, this single-player title asks players to investigate an infamous cold case in the abandoned town of Painscreek.

The gameplay borrows mechanics from a walking simulator but adds logical puzzles that require thought rather than holding your hand. As you move through the town, you uncover secrets that were meant to stay hidden forever while trying to determine who killed Vivian Roberts.The main story takes approximately eight hours to complete, with the full experience including extras extending to eleven hours. Players aiming for a completionist run can expect to spend around twelve hours in total exploring wherever their investigation leads. The narrative focuses on exposing the truth behind the town's dark secrets without offering guidance on how to solve every puzzle.
