The Investigator





GENRES
Introduction:
Animatropolis. A city full of talking, walking creatures and the regrettable residence of a noir-loving private investigator alligator who is at his breaking point when it comes to coping with the problems of city life. However, the city remains imprisoned in his mind and he remains imprisoned inside it just as he is ready to leave it all behind! The alligator, who is destined to repeat the day before he can move out, unexpectedly finds himself employed by a dubious individual who enters his workplace and makes some absurd time travel-related remarks. The investigator, forced to comply, chooses to investigate; will he discover the reason behind all of this, or would he be condemned to repeat his mistakes indefinitely?
