Suddenly, the character is taken into custody and put in prison, accused of a crime, and the punishment will be the return to life of that which the protagonist cannot allow.

- explore the virtual world in the form of various mythical creatures;
- enter into dialogues and find out information;
- collect collectibles and investigate crime scenes;
- examine evidence that can lead to the identity of the real attacker;
- Use each monster's supernatural powers for your own purposes.
