About This Game

Story Background:

Join Elias Vance and step into the tumultuous late Victorian era.

The Thorn family, once the pinnacle of puppet theater craftsmanship, was shattered by a tragic incident. The family heir, the genius puppeteer known as "Pygmalion," Caspian Thorn, retreated into seclusion at the Marionette Manor. After leaving behind a note stating "I have attained eternity," he vanished without a trace.

Years later, a mysterious rumor began circulating among puppeteers: Caspian had discovered the secret to immortality. The puppet he created—Galatea—would invite the most talented puppeteers to the manor to inherit the Thorn family legacy and Caspian's techniques.

Lured by the family's wealth and artistry, many puppeteers chose to accept the invitation and enter the manor. Yet, none have ever returned. The manor stands silent, awaiting its next guest.

This time, the puppet named Galatea has delivered the invitation to you. Can you solve the manor's puzzles, claim its treasures, and escape with your life?
