So here's the situation; the protagonist wakes up in the morning and finds out that a bounty hunter is after his superhero alter ego and is minutes away from finding his apartment. He does so by following old heat signatures. So the protagonist, who knows who that bounty hunter is cause he's read his file, immediately comes up with a plan to cover his identity; he jumps off the window to get a drop on the hunter (the window is almost on top of a skyscraper, so nobody on ground level would notice when it broke), and then he follows the same path he took the previous day to cover his old trail, and jump out of his apartment again, while telling the AI assistant to pretend she didn't know who the masked guy is. All to disassociate his heroic alter with his real identity.
I was thinking Indy Ploy, but the whole thing seems too complicated for that. So is it that or Xanatos Speed Chess?
