The game focuses on choices and consequences, with actions taking place via a series of Quick Time Events a la Fahrenheit. The story also focuses on three other characters: Madison Paige, an insomniac who becomes involved with Ethan's desperate search Norman Jayden, an FBI profiler called in to consult on the Origami Killer case and Scott Shelby, a private eye conducting an independent investigation. If Ethan wishes to save his son from a similar fate, he must complete the trials set by the Origami Killer, who wishes to test just how far Ethan will go to save his child.
He is jolted out of his stupor when his remaining son is suddenly kidnapped by the "Origami Killer", a notorious serial killer who uses rising rainwater to drown his young victims, then leaves origami figures on the bodies.
