What is Jack Holmes : Master of Puppets?
Jack Holmes is a first-person survival-horror game about a man who joins his estranged family business and begins what appears to be a simple first case.
The investigation leads through an abandoned house, a basement used for experiments on children, old mines and an amusement park. Living puppets, uncontrolled animatronics, huge spiders and other nightmarish beings threaten the journey. Ammunition and first-aid kits found during exploration must be managed, while enemies with different mechanics and bosses require direct confrontation. Safe zones provide save points that can be used whenever desired. The amusement park includes attractions and roller coasters alongside areas to explore. The stated game length is 4 to 5 hours.
