To do: Document NFT, Neighbor_Fake's cutscene and other missing content

In this game, you are playing as a local journalist named Quentin. He is suspicious of his creepy neighbor, Mr. Peterson. A bunch of people have gone missing and there's just something strange about Mr. Peterson. Everyone is afraid of him. There have been rumors of children going to his house and never being heard from again. Some say he likes to lock people up in his basement, but no one has any proof, so people just try to avoid Mr. Peterson, his odd house, and ignore the strange sounds coming from his basement at night. You have a feeling that Mr. Peterson is behind all the neighborhood disappearances, but no one believes in your ideas and theories. And while you normally wouldn't break into someone's house, you're the only one who believes something is wrong and has the guts to uncover the truth.
