01 / The theory
Everybody in this city is guilty of something.
Palm trees, chrome, cash and bad decisions. The detectives pinned 6,997 faces to the wall and drew red string between them. Kingpins, drivers, dealers of nothing in particular, the girl who owns the club and the guy who owns the girl who owns the club.
Nobody agrees on how it all connects. That is the theory. Your character is one piece of it.
02 / Case files
The lineup.
Every token uses the same camera, the same pose and the same framing, so the collection reads like one lineup wall. Here are ten of the 40 suspects.
Preview art. Outfits, accessories and final backgrounds are still in production.
