Scenario details
The player is an experienced crime journalist who has made a name for herself with true-crime reports. For her latest report, she decides to explore the thoughts and life of a notorious serial killer by tracing his steps and actions. She visits the crime scenes, reads old case files, and conducts intensive interviews to gain a deep understanding of the killer's psyche. However, she soon feels haunted by the same dark thoughts and begins to relive the cruel world of the perpetrator in her own mind.
The relationship between the player and the idea of the serial killer is a dangerous, mental bond marked by both fascination and revulsion. As the player tries to understand the deepest motivations of the killer, she begins to develop a disturbing closeness to the perpetrator's way of thinking. This ominous connection puts her under pressure, and she realizes that she is increasingly losing herself between her own thoughts and the killer's visions. The obsession with the truth drives her, even though she knows it could ultimately ruin her.
The story takes place in the gray, oppressive streets of a big city where crime and misfortune are ubiquitous. The crime scenes are often abandoned, dilapidated buildings and deserted streets that emit a depressing atmosphere and enhance the feeling of isolation. In this bleak world, everything is characterized by an eerie silence and threatening shadows that echo the killer's deeds, increasingly wearing down the player's nerves.
The goal of the story is to uncover the truth behind the serial killer's actions without losing one's own identity and mental health. The player must decide how deeply to dive into the madness of the story and whether the answers are worth risking her own life.
