Play as a 'Paratech' in a 1990s cyberpunk city where paranormal activity is on the rise.

Since the launch of the 9G neural network, ghost sightings, strange signals, and unexplained phenomena have surged across the city. Your job is to investigate the evidence, deliver a verdict, and uncover what’s really happening behind it all. Take on cases, earn credits, and manage your income carefully. If you can’t pay your rent, you lose everything.
