WELCOME TO THE WORLD'S FAIR HOTEL
You are trapped inside a masterpiece of madness. Unravel the chilling mystery of H.H. Holmes Murder Castle. In this atmospheric true crime escape simulator, every room is a puzzle and every document a shocking discovery. Can you escape the architect of death?
Chicago, 1893. The World's Columbian Exposition is in full swing, a dazzling beacon of human progress. Just blocks away stands a magnificent new hotel, promising luxury and convenience to young travelers. You are one of them, hoping to start a new life in a new city. But the man who welcomed you, Dr. H.H. Holmes, is not a hotelier. He is a predator. And his building is not a sanctuary, it is a machine designed to kill for profit.
About 20 minutes of playtime.

Pretty good puzzles but for me the game didn't feel scary at all. Think you can cook up a solid escape simulator game
Excellent game. One puzzle in the room with the dead guy was very, very hard; I was stuck there for maybe 30 min. But yeah, fun puzzle horror game.
Thank you for the feedback and the video! :)
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
