It takes place in a dilapidated farmhouse in the rural south, far from the glamour of 1940s New York City where Loretta and her husband Walter, a writer, once resided. The discovery of her husband's infidelity and a lucrative life insurance policy filed in his name triggers a grisly plan. It's up to the player to decide how far Loretta will go.

Loretta features branching paths and multiple endings, allowing for a custom experience with replay opportunities. Players can engage with locals through branching dialogue options, solve cryptic puzzles, and decide Loretta's fate. The game is conceptually inspired by film noir, offering a thrilling journey into a woman's desperate bid to reclaim control of her life.
