The mission: Your story in Sofia

Filled with disdain for the communist regime, someone walks the streets of modern Sofia. He’s the Ghost of Communism Past, and his only chance of being at peace is to finally remember who he was. 

You weren’t planning on becoming the helper of a distraught ghost when you went out today, and yet this is where you are now— the Ghost has begged you for help and you can’t deny it to him. Together, you start looking for clues that will solve the mystery of his life and death and finally free him.
