Our take on The Wellmonts Case
The defining detail is the first-person detective format: photographing evidence and examining clues gradually reveals the mystery inside an abandoned family farm.
What is The Wellmonts Case?
Investigate a family's unexplained disappearance at the abandoned Wellmont farm in Northern Maine, during 1993.
As a private detective, explore the property, photograph unsettling evidence, and examine objects connected to the case. Written clues, locks, and puzzles provide progress while the narrative develops through investigation. The environment becomes increasingly unreliable as details shift, time slips, and familiar spaces take on threatening qualities. Sound and unseen danger add tension during exploration. The game uses a first-person perspective and a walking-simulator structure, presenting a tightly paced psychological horror experience centered on uncovering what happened to the Wellmont family.
