About this game

Welcome to Mt. Holly, where every dawn unveils a new mystery. Navigate through shifting corridors and ever-changing chambers in this genre-defying strategy puzzle adventure. But will the unpredictable path you create lead you to the rumored Room 46?

Simon P. Jones inherits the sprawling Mt. Holly Estate from his late great-uncle, Herbert S. Sinclair, but the bequest comes with a single peculiar condition: to claim his inheritance, Simon must find a hidden forty-sixth room concealed somewhere within the manor. The house is no ordinary mansion. Through a strange technique called drafting, its forty-five known rooms can be conjured and rearranged, so its layout is reborn anew each day. As Simon navigates the ever-shifting halls in search of that elusive final room, he uncovers scattered clues to the estate's history and to the wider world beyond it, a low-fantasy realm where airships are commonplace and old secrets run deep. Those clues gradually point toward a more personal mystery: the disappearance of Simon's mother, the children's book author Mary Jones.
