About the Game

Explore the mansion and get comfortable, you may be spending the rest of your life here. Solve puzzles, grab everything that's not nailed down, try to survive, and make a cup of tea while you're at it. Max Gentlemen: Escape From Moriarty Mansion is a first person mixture of mystery, puzzles and visual novel with an absurdist twist.

Dinner and a Mystery

You're a wealthy Victorian socialite and you've just received a mysterious invite to a remote mansion in the dead of winter. Who could resist? A masked stranger, Moran, has gathered you and nine other enigmatic characters for a grim purpose at the mansion of the infamous Professor Moriarty. Will you live long enough to unlock his secrets?

Room Escape Style Puzzles

Each night another puzzle filled room unlocks: The gallery, the library, the trophy room, the lighthouse, and more. Can you solve them or will you wield a trusty "puzzle-solving" hammer? (Is that allowed?!) Avoid traps, manage personalities and try to keep everyone alive.

Spend time in the mansion with your sidekick, companion and former child-detective, Pip Whipple. Meet the nine other extreme characters: The business tycoon, the witch, the hedonist, the mountain climber, the huntsman, the performer, the psychologist, the gambler and the slayer.
