About the Game

Madness of The Architect is a surreal horror/puzzle game inspired by older point-and-click adventure games such as Myst, Nine Doors and 999: Nine Hours.

Players enter a world that seems to be going insane and must solve labyrinths of mind bending puzzles and uncover the identity of the mysterious Architect who created this world.

You will need to follow the clues, pull levers, find items, avoid sliding doors, and more.

"C" if you can escape the clutches of the Madness of the Architect!
