About This Game

Search a 3D haunted mansion, using slide-based point-and-click navigation in the style of old-school adventure games, to find ghosts and spooky concept art



Full of animated works of art, by professional artist Clayton Bryant Young and his daughter, game animator and designer Audrey Bryann Young.

Each piece is animated to rotate, showing first the original flat 2D image, and then revealing an extruded 3D sculptural version on the other side, sometimes with movement and sound.



An original ghost story faerietale about the haunted mansion and its characters, with 9 black & white hand-drawn illustrations by novelist Carlene Bryann Young



Books in the bookshelf share a story universe; they will eventually be able to link to their own 3D storybook world. Read/listen to sneak-peek story summaries, and see preview concept art!

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

The setting is a manor house haunted by ghosts who died tragic deaths - included are concept art images of the ghosts with traumatic wounds. The centerpiece audiobook is not intended for young readers/listeners, as the text/audio narration of the book contains descriptions of death/killing, bodily harm and threats, suicide, alcohol and drunkenness, and the use of a tobacco pipe. Profanity and sexual innuendo is mild and infrequent. There are discussions and depictions of religious themes and practices. Two characters possess disabilities - one mental, the other physical - and suffer some mistreatment and threats of harm from other characters. Some minor violence toward a child by a caregiver is depicted.
