Game Summary
You wake up next to a dead body, clutching a mysterious piece of paper. Soon, you realize that this piece of paper interacts with a physical object in the real world—aligning it with the screen reveals hidden clues. Using this blended real-world and digital puzzle mechanic, players must piece together the mystery and find a way to escape the house.
