Uncover the Secrets of the Drowning House ...

As a visitor in a museum in Kerala, India, you discover a way to travel through pictures and time. Dive into the frames and uncover the dark secrets of the people in the drowned house by solving its mysteries.

Introduction

"The Framing of the Drowning House" is devided into 6 Acts. In most Acts, there are picture frames through which the players can travel into the different Acts and thus into the past. Some paintings are blocked and have to be unlocked by bringing all Items of a kind to their respective depot which also results in getting a new story hint from the puppet in the museum. The game world is limited to this room but is experienced in a lot of different ways through the changes in each Act. A continuous track plays and creates an underlying scary mood with calm, but mysterious sounds.

“The Framing of the Drowning House“ is based on the short story “The Fall of the House of Usher“ by Edgar Allen Poe.
