More about this game
Your goal is to uncover the truth behind Layla's disappearance from a locked room. You explore the 3D environment in first-person, switching between the reality of 2041 and a recorded memory from 21:00. By inspecting the door, vent, and terminal in both timelines, you collect six pieces of evidence. The challenge lies in linking contradictory clues in your notebook to prove the memory was forged. The investigation ends when you deduce the correct sequence of events based on your three established links.
Tips
- Always check the exact same spot in both timelines. The door lock shows 21:10 in reality but 21:00 in the memory.
- Avoid using the hint button if you want a perfect score. Solving the case with all six clues and no hints awards three stars.
- Listen to Layla's voice message at the terminal in the memory timeline; it directly explains the missing maintenance vent.
FAQ
- How do I link evidence?
- Open the notebook and tap two clues that contradict each other, like the real maintenance vent and the memory's solid wall.
- Why can't I make a deduction yet?
- You must successfully link all three pairs of contradictory evidence in your notebook before the game lets you choose a final conclusion.
- How do I get a three-star rating?
- You earn one star for solving the case, a second for finding all six clues, and a third for never using the hint button.
