The last thing Alex remembers is being alone in her apartment. Suddenly, she's awoken in a dark and deadly mansion, with a stranger's voice crackling through a walkie-talkie and cameras following her every move. When Alex realizes she's not the only one caught up in this nightmare, she sets off to discover who—or what—is lurking in the shadows...
The Tartarus Key is a first-person narrative thriller that has you seeking to escape a mysterious mansion full of dark secrets, terrible traps, perilous puzzles, and many a twist and turn. As Alex, explore every dreadful corridor, escape complex rooms using brains over brawn, meet fellow captives relying on you to survive, and unlock the mansion’s many lethal riddles.
Features:
- Escape a deadly mansion filled with dangerous traps, and rescue Alex’s fellow captives… or fail, and leave them to a grisly fate.
- Uncover three different endings, and dig to the heart of the mansion and the strange secrets it and your captors hold.
- Solve puzzles and challenges reminiscent of escape-the-room games in a variety of unsettling and bizarre scenarios.
- A tense, atmospheric adventure that relies on puzzles and plot instead of combat or chase sequences.
