How it begins

You play as someone tasked to explore an abandoned home and find out exactly what happened to whoever used to live here. You begin in the living room which has several pieces of furniture, including a small chest. You're wearing a black cap and a brown jacket, and you're carrying a gold watch and a map of the house.
