About the Game

Uncover the chilling secrets of Goldridge Hollow, a hidden object puzzle adventure where the past refuses to stay buried. The once-prosperous mining town now exists in a liminal haze, its people trapped between worlds. Guided by Sarah, an ethereal figure with a tragic past, you must untangle the threads of a story woven from greed, pride, and poisoned earth.

Explore the Blackwood Manor, dig through the cursed mine, and investigate the town’s neglected records to uncover the truth behind Thomas Blackwood’s downfall. Each diary entry, each spectral encounter brings you closer to understanding the forces that doomed the town—and the man.

Search for hidden objects in richly detailed, ghostly environments—from the dusty apothecary to the shadowed cemetery—and solve challenging puzzles that unlock memories long suppressed. Piece together fragments of journals, family heirlooms, and whispered confessions until the final confrontation.

With a deeply emotional narrative, immersive atmosphere, and a satisfying mix of exploration and puzzle-solving, Spectra: Beneath the Stain will draw you into its haunted embrace until the last secret is revealed. Can you free the town before you, too, become part of its eternal echo?
