In 1830, governess Ester inherits an abandoned London mansion and uncovers her family’s history of investigating time travel. A strange device draws her into a mystery involving her heritage and the conflict between Merlin and Viviana.
Explore hand-painted locations, collect and use objects, and search scenes for items from a displayed list. Mini-games and puzzles provide additional challenges as Ester follows clues through the mansion and beyond.
The portable time machine lets Ester move between eras and change events: an action in the past can open a route or provide an item in another time. The game includes 52 locations, 16 hidden-object scenes, and 21 mini-games.
Some reviewers enjoy the time-travel mechanic, the way locations connect across eras, and the game’s mysterious atmosphere. Others find the hidden-object scenes frequent, cluttered, or difficult, and report that some mini-games or puzzles are unclear. Opinions on the story and challenge vary.
