About the 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!




This game was made by a tight-knit family of 4 artists:

Audrey Bryann Young (Animator; 3D Modeler, Illustrator, Concept Artist, Sound & Game Designer), her sister Carlene Bryann Young (Writer; Co-Illustrator, Concept Artist and Game/UI Designer), Clayton Bryant Young (Oil Painter, Large-Scale Art Installation Designer), and Amber Young (Art Director)
