10 itemsAbout the Game
Blackthorne’s Manor is a first-person puzzle-horror experience that plunges you into the unsettling depths of a long-abandoned estate.
Your friend vanished after attending a party at the manor, and no one has seen them since. Armed with little more than your wits and a faintly glowing lantern, you step inside, not knowing what you'll find on the other side. Shadowed rooms, cryptic puzzles, and fragments of a dark history wait around every corner. The manor’s decaying halls and strange, unsettling details hint at the sinister events that took place here. Can you uncover the secrets of Blackthorne’s Manor, or will its mysteries remain locked forever?
RISING TENSION
Immerse yourself in the oppressive atmosphere of the manor, where every shadowed hallway and forgotten room hides a story. Interact with objects, solve environmental puzzles, and piece together the chilling history of Blackthorne’s family. Every discovery draws you deeper into the mystery, blending suspense and intrigue in a slow-burn horror experience.
ESCAPING THE UNKNOWN
Move through a semi-linear environment designed like a twisted escape room. Unlock doors, trigger mechanisms, and follow hidden clues to advance. Every puzzle solved reveals more of the manor’s story and brings you closer to finding your missing friend.
