Our take on Castle of Secrets
Its defining structure is a mystery in which collected objects and puzzle solutions feed directly into a branching story, with choices determining Susan's fate and the ending.
What is Castle of Secrets?
Castle of Secrets is a psychological mystery adventure set in a haunted 3D castle inhabited by hand-drawn 2D characters.
Miss Susan travels into the realm of the dead to investigate her family's murder and the curse surrounding the Tranton family. Exploration uses a point-and-click structure: examine, collect, manipulate, and combine objects across the castle. Puzzles are tied to the story and can affect its direction. Encounters include more than 30 characters, including possible allies, deceivers, and enemies with their own motives. Choices influence Susan's fate, leading to multiple possible endings as the investigation develops.
