Alex Carter was a forensic prodigy-destined for a life of logic and order.
But the Game of Shadows doesn't follow rules. Now, caught in a deadly maze of secrets, lies, and betrayal, survival means outsmarting killers and questioning everything - including himself.
Trust no one. Kill if you must. And remember: in this game, shadows aren't just behind you. They're everywhere.

[Crackling static. A voice - mocking, tired, like someone who's seen too much and slept too little.]
"This is your warning. Your only one."
"My name's Alex Carter. Maybe you've heard of me - the boy genius with the pocket watch and perfect crime scene reconstructions.
Cute, right?
Except... that version of me? Dead."
"You want the truth? Fine. I joined the Game thinking I could outsmart it. I mapped blood patterns, traced trajectories, made it all make sense.
But nothing about this place is logical. Nothing about survival is clean.
People vanish. People scream. People beg.
And the worst part? Sometimes they laugh while doing it."
"Soren's a walking nightmare with a smile sharp enough to slit throats.
Athena? She's chaos wrapped in silk - a storm you never see coming.
And I was stupid enough to think I could read her."
"I don't even know who I am anymore.
The prodigy? The killer?
The player who rigged the board - or just another piece getting dragged?"
[*Ticking. Distant footsteps. Then - silence. The kind that breathes.*]
"If you found this... run.
Or don't.
Either way, the shadows are coming."

Welcome to the Game of Shadows - where trust is a lie, and killing is the only way to survive.
