In New York, a string of disappearances and deaths among homeless people draws charitable heir Henry White and his friend Cooper into an investigation. They encounter John Yesterday, a man with no memory of his past, whose identity becomes part of the mystery.
Explore locations, inspect objects and clues, and talk with characters to advance the investigation. The classic point-and-click gameplay centers on collecting and using inventory items to solve puzzles, with a hint system available when progress stalls.
The story unfolds through comic-panel-style scenes, dialogue, and fragments of John's memories. As the investigation moves between locations and past events, new details connect the disappearances to a wider mystery.
Players who enjoy Yesterday often point to its mysterious story, surprising turns, and dark atmosphere, supported by its comic-inspired presentation. Some also appreciate its puzzles and compact length, while others find the story rushed, the puzzle solutions unclear, or the adventure too short.
