Described by the developer as an "Action Murder Mystery" game, the player primarily takes the role of the Harbinger, a mythical warrior who only appears in times of crisis, and as a dark god destroys the world of war-torn Urralia. In order to save the world, the Harbinger must use their Omensight power to go back in time, reliving the final day to investigate a series of events that led to the murder of a priestess. The Harbinger comes across four other companion characters which are the key to solving the crisis. She will not hesitate to kill them if they get in the way of her investigation or obtaining vital information to solve the murder and stop the apocalypse.
Omensight received "generally positive" and "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.
