Deadly consequences!
Introducing: Charles Davenport (Investigator of the truth)
You are Charles Davenport, investigator of the truth during Victorian London.
Things have been pretty slack lately with not a whiff of a decent case entering your office. What you need right now is mind stimulation!
Reading through the days letters you find there are bills, bills and more bills! That is until you pick up an invitation throwing you a challenge invitation to pit your wits in a game. It is signed Moriarty: 'Master of magic and illusion'. Seeing it as a mind boggling great idea and just what you need right now, you decide to accept the challenge invitation.
You coach ride to Blackthorn Manor with your heart racing with adrenaline. Suddenly the coach stops and the driver tells you he will not go any further due to what he has heard about Blackthorn Manor, so you have to walk the mile or so on foot along the dark, eerie lane.
On arrival at Blackthorn Manor you pull the bell rope and the main door opens up and you are greeted by an unseen voice beckoning you into the Manor "Please, do come through Mr Davenport."
The voice begins to explain the challenge. It soon becomes apparent that this is not just an ordinary game, it is a game of deadly consequences as you need to get out of the Manor, and fast, and time is running out!
Will Queen Victoria been blown to smithereens?
By finding the solutions to each door they will allow you beyond them to other rooms, but even then the heat never cools as further problems arise!
You must obtain 10 Black Ravens if you are to win this game. This is not as easy as it seems!
You must win this game before you die of gas poisoning which is set to be released in 20 minutes!
Can you win this deadly game and get out of Blackthorn Manor?
UPDATED Now have the help of a great background artist...

Looks great! You definitely have an established style. Better add some images before the screenshot bandit gets ya'!
How does this relate to the upcoming Desecration? Is it in the same universe?
Hi Gurok,
QuoteBetter add some images before the screenshot bandit gets ya'!
There are 3 rooms with character in the slideshow.

It is another case as it were. It's still being checked. Hopefully ready by July..
The video contains a few screens... but you need to post them as individual screenshots too (for those that can't view an embedded youtube video (mobile, etc))! Please update ASAP.
Thanks for the speedy update!
New screenie...(background room still in production)
Coming across a Puppet Boy (animated with speech)..... Will he help you?

Am I the only one that finds that puppet boy... creepy? :shocked:
I was spooked just doing the Puppet Boy scene (laugh)
Honestly, the variety of puzzles/problems (and techniques) I am incorporating into this game goes way beyond the bounds of medical science (laugh)
Keep eyes opened for more ;)
Strait jacket anyone....?
