In Havsala, you investigate the Soul Palace, a room created by Phryne as a place for her soul to endure through reincarnation. Search the space for hidden objects and messages left by her later lives.
Examine books, diaries, and other texts to uncover details about the people and periods represented in the palace. Use what you learn—such as dates, symbols, and astronomical information—to work through puzzles and open new parts of the mystery.
The game centers on mouse-based room exploration and deduction. You can record observations in a notebook, manipulate time in the room, and ask a crow for help with clues as you connect information gathered along the way.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its hand-drawn visuals, evocative music and atmosphere, and story built around history, mythology, and mysticism. Some find the research-heavy puzzles satisfying and rewarding, while others describe their logic as obscure or frustrating and say they needed hints or a walkthrough.
