You methodically solve puzzles by following cryptic rules in a top-down pixel mansion, uncovering a dark mystery with each grid-based step.

What players say
Players praise the all-female cast and atmosphere, but are split on the later story, some call it satisfying, others say it turns into misery for its women. Chase sequences frustrate many, and the limit of three save slots is a common complaint.
