About This Game

In the shadowy underbelly of New Orleans, an investigative journalist navigates the city's roughest quarters—dimly lit taverns and deserted docks—searching for leads on a story that could define their career. Word travels fast through the criminal underworld that someone is asking dangerous questions, and every contact willing to talk comes with its own risk. The reporter must weigh their sources carefully, knowing that trust placed in the wrong informant could mean the difference between uncovering the scoop of a lifetime and disappearing into the murky waters of the Gulf altogether.
