Shapeshifting Mechanics
Players master alchemical abilities to brew elixirs that grant the power to change physical form. These shapeshifts are required to navigate obstacles and reach areas otherwise inaccessible.
Each transformation is tied to a specific potion; preparing the correct elixir lets you assume a new shape, which in turn opens new paths or solves environmental riddles.
- Practice your potion-making to prepare elixirs that let you change your physical form.
- Use shapeshifts deliberately to explore hidden corners of each scene.

The elixirs you prepare enable shapeshifting, which you can use to solve riddles and crack the murder case, making careful preparation a core loop of the gameplay.
- Record discovered recipes for quick reference later.
