A Racoon in a Trenchcoat? We're In. [Backbone Review]
This weeks Treasure Pit follows racoon private eye Howard Lotor in a beautifully animated game called Backbone, from Egg Nut. It's a point and click narrative adventure where you play as Detective Lotor in dystopian Vancouver, where a seemingly small case turns into something much bigger.

From the Steam Store:
You’re not special. You’re not a hero. Thrust into unfortunate circumstances, you find yourself with no other option than to unravel what might be your biggest case yet.
There is no choice. We change, but we change nothing. Get to work, detective.
Backbone is a post-noir narrative adventure. Become raccoon private eye Howard Lotor and explore dystopian Vancouver inhabited by animals as you uncover a deeply personal story of change and transformation.
Backbone is inspired by film noir, weird sci-fi, post-soviet aesthetics, modern political regimes, the works of Lynch and Kaufman, and existential philosophy of Sartre. It is a linear, cinematic narrative experience that subverts genre and challenges your perception of what it means to be a person.
