Our take on The Uninvited: MacVenture Series
Its focus on preserving a 1986-style adventure gives up contemporary presentation and action-driven pacing in favor of retro graphics, mansion exploration, object puzzles, and a classic interface.
What is The Uninvited: MacVenture Series?
The Uninvited: MacVenture Series is a first-person horror adventure set in a Gothic mansion.
After a car crash leaves a brother missing, the player enters the manor and explores more than 50 rooms containing ghosts, demons, and puzzles. Time passing threatens the character’s sanity, adding pressure to the investigation. The package includes restored Macintosh and Apple IIGS versions of the 1986 game.
