## What is The Night Archive?

Before midnight, put the truth on record.
The Night Archive is an AI-driven interactive mystery game. Become a night investigator, reopen sealed case files, examine clues, question testimonies, and make critical choices that shape the course of each story.
A clerk vanishes from a border town on a rainy night. A lighthouse suddenly goes dark inside a fogbound harbor. An unnumbered carriage arrives at a storm-struck station. An ancient bell swings in silence at a snow-covered temple. Twelve standalone cases await, each hiding a different truth.
Every investigation consumes precious time, and every decision can change the situation. Question the people involved, inspect traces left behind, uncover contradictions between testimony and physical evidence, and assemble scattered discoveries into a complete chain of evidence.
Who can you trust?
Which clues are carefully planted distractions?
Can you uncover the real answer before midnight?
