Overview
- Spooky Doorway and Raw Fury released the first-person supernatural detective game on Steam with a limited 10% launch discount running through November 10.
- Set in late October 1897, players control private investigator Declan Ward as he probes the disappearance of Evelyn Deane at a remote Irish hotel preparing for a Grand Séance.
- Investigative play centers on first-person exploration, timed interrogations and events, an evolving mind-map of clues, and hypothesis-building deduction that advances an in-game clock.
- The Guardian lauds the game’s tightly constructed mystery and its engagement with colonialism, class divides, diaspora, and spiritualism woven through an Irish folk-horror narrative.
- A hand-drawn, comic-influenced look draws on artists like Mike Mignola, Eduardo Risso, and Tim Sale, complemented by a period soundtrack that adapts to location and player choices.
