Panache's Steam Early Access notes estimate roughly fifteen hours of content in the current launch build. That figure describes the first Early Access piece, not the eventual full game or a guaranteed completion time for every playstyle.
Current Early Access estimate
Steam's developer Early Access notes describe the present release as the first piece of the game and estimate roughly 15 hours of content. That is the clearest official figure for the current build.
What the estimate does not mean
The figure is not a version 1.0 completion time. Panache says Early Access will expand districts, story, and the Originals, while also explaining that the exact Early Access duration is difficult to predict.
Plan your playthrough
Use the estimate as a budget for the current main content, then allow extra time for exploration and optional discovery. Recheck the current store description after major updates because a growing Early Access build can outdate any fixed hour count.
What can change the number
Exploration, optional searching, puzzle time, retries, and later content updates can move an individual playthrough above or below the estimate. Panache plans additional districts, story, and Originals, so any fixed hour count should be dated to the current Early Access scope.
