What is Noir Syndrome?
You play a detective hunting a killer in a single-player adventure set in a noir city. Each run changes the culprit and clues as you question suspects, search objects, and track evidence in a notebook. Visiting locations uses up your investigation time, and a single bullet can kill you.
For you if...
- +you like brief cases built for repeated attempts
Not for you if...
- −you want a scripted mystery with a fixed narrative
