I tried the prologue, it plays good. The the horror theme, the searching through the rooms, the house architecture, controlling 3 kids … reminded me a bit of the game “Maniac Mansion” (one of the first games I ever played). Is it somehow inspired on “Maniac Mansion” or are the similarities just coincidence? I’m curious
Hey, thanks a lot for playing the game, I’m glad you liked it!
I’m afraid I haven’t played Maniac Mansion, from Lucasfilm, I’ve only played Monkey Island, so it’s just a coincidence. The main references of the game are classic RPG horror games like Ib, The Witch’s House, Misao and Mad Father; also, Yuppie Psycho and the Little Nightmares saga.
All the best!
