The Light in the Mist
A found tarot-like deck prompts an investigation into a friend's disappearance and a journey through time and memory. Players manipulate 78 illustrated cards, use Minor Arcana sets to solve 22 Major Arcana puzzles, and extract solution keywords that reveal additional story passages. Puzzles combine logic, word problems, hidden messages and item-granting scenes that can unlock extra narrative branches. The game includes a story booklet with clues and allows solo or cooperative play, with a non-linear structure and variable puzzle difficulty that unfolds across multiple sessions.
