Welcome to Miami. City of bright lights and even brighter flames. All woven in a tapestry of sparks, with millions joining and even more snuffed out by life as a whole. This is a city where the party never ends, the women are sultry and the men know just what you want. Everything you could ever want in this place, Miami is here to give it.
At least, till of late. An unfortunate, tragic death in a long string of them crippled the night life. Laughter is louder and more forced. People leave only in groups now and never go out alone. And there is only so much the police as a whole can do. Thankfully, as yellow tape surrounds the most brutal murder in a club area, a hero emerges.
You.
Let the hunt begin.
SCENE ONE: THE PINK PUSSY CLUB
A squadron of police cars surround the place, a 'massage parlor' with a little extra happy ending, but its not that which calls the force here tonight. With guards at the entrances and more at the mouth of an alleyway, its clear this yet another scene where the mysterious "Buffalo Student" has struck once. Waiting at the mouth of the alley stands a single figure.
What happens next is up to you.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
And miles to go before I sleep.
A new murder spree is crossing the nation, women flayed alive and their corpses dumped into rivers. The closest you can recall to this case was one, sad file entitled "Buffalo Bill." Unfortunately, the only connection to the case is dead. The killer is long since removed from the picture and the woman who was heavily involved with it, in retirement. As to the unique consultant, there remains no trace as he is still at large.
And then one night, your unit is sent to investigate another such death, the fifth and most recent kill... -
Just a list of reminders really, just to give an idea of how the game works.
1.) Interaction. As a freeform Investigative game, most of your clues will be gained via how you interact with the world around you. What you find will add more of the puzzle and thus an idea of the real killer.
2.) Choice. Like the Telltale games, the story is tailored by the choices you make. What you do in the now, may have consequences much later.
3.) NPC's will lie if they have something to gain from it, in some way. Finding out how is related to the first bit. Its possible to bluff them out, in some cases but generally the more evidence you gain, the more they will be easier to crack.
4.) Have fun. Just as you hunt the killer, it will be hunting you in turn.
Good luck. -
