Second Maze: The Creators Behind Follow the Meaning
Developed and published by Second Maze, Follow the Meaning invites players to explore a peculiar, offbeat town as Paul Trilby, a detective who finds himself in over his head.

The inhabitants enter and exit the hospital without any recollection of their past lives, setting the stage for a compelling mystery.
As you delve deeper into this eerie world, you'll unravel the enigma through bizarre conversations and a range of puzzles. From memory tests and hidden object searches to logic challenges and traditional inventory puzzles, Follow the Meaning keeps you on your toes with diverse gameplay elements.
The game's soundtrack plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall mood. With a mix of soft piano, jazz, and more intense tracks, the music dynamically shifts to reflect the unfolding narrative.
