You play as a worker sent to retrieve prototype technology from the abandoned Murray’s Costume Manor. As you search the inventor Edwin Murray’s workshop, the Mimic—a prototype endoskeleton able to take on different costumes—hunts you through the building.
Explore the manor from a first-person perspective, solve environmental puzzles, and use an electronic tool to open doors and gain access to new areas. Sneak past the Mimic, hide in lockers, and use distractions such as sound buttons and wind-up mice to get through dangerous sections.
Progress by uncovering the manor’s story in recordings, emails, and other clues while collecting items and improving your access. Further exploration and collectibles can reveal additional endings.
Players who enjoyed the game often praise its more direct story and lore, free-roaming exploration, puzzles, and tense encounters with the Mimic. Some also like how the smaller manor setting and varied chase sequences shape the horror. Other reviews find the stealth sections repetitive or frustrating, and mention bugs, a short campaign, and concerns about replay requirements or price.
