Our take on Sunshine Manor
Instead of relying on a standard horror structure, the game combines mansion exploration and riddles with travel between mortal and demon realms. Its grim premise is paired with comedy, quirky characters, hand-drawn 8-bit visuals, and retro music.
What is Sunshine Manor?
Ada accepts a dare to spend the night in Sunshine Manor, a haunted mansion inhabited by ghosts, demons, and other horrors.
Exploration crosses between the mortal and demon realms, where she faces the Shadow Man, solves puzzles and riddles, and investigates the building’s dark history. Quirky characters present additional challenges during the journey. The game combines horror with comedy and retro presentation, using hand-drawn 8-bit graphics and an 80s-inspired soundtrack. It serves as a prequel to Camp Sunshine and explores events preceding the massacre at Big Bear Lake.
