Deadly Consequences!

Set in Victorian London 1870.

In your office one morning you are looking through the day's mail when you come across an invitation issuing you a game of challenge.

You have not had a juicy case in over two weeks and this is just what you need to fill the empty void and give you mind stimulation.

The invitation instructs you to be at Blackthorn Manor 23rd September at 8:00pm.

Blackthorn Manor has been assumed to be empty for years.

Your hired coach driver stops a mile short of the Manor and refuses to go any further, due to what he has heard about Blackthorn Manor, and advises you to steer well clear!

Upon your arrival at Blackthorn Manor you are greeted by an unseen voice. It soon becomes apparent that this is no ordinary game of challenge, but a game of deadly consequence with the life of Queen Victoria in the balance!

You must solve door puzzles to get into the rooms beyond. This requires much thinking about. Find and obtain valuable items that will help win these challenges for you must collect ten Black Ravens.

This game has Modes for Un-Timed and Timed games.

Timed Modes:
You have been set a time limit afterwhich a poisonous gas will expel: killing you within minutes!

It is a race against time. Will you succeed and win this deadly game and save Queen Victoria from certain death?

800 x 600 resolution

Time to hone in on those Adventure Gaming skills, for you are invited to take place in a challenge that unbeknownst to you could lead to deadly consequences!

I really enjoyed this one, once I had solved the anagram at the start of the game. It took me too long and I ran out of time. For there is a time limit. I did survive on my second outing, maybe if you are reading and haven't tried, you could beat the challenge and win without perishing.

This is a fun game and I look forward to more games in this series if they come about.


By Stupot on 5 September 2014

I love puzzle-based games, and I love escape games. This kind of reminded me of the 7th Guest, only this game is a lot quicker and more tense, especially on timed mode. Some of the puzzles were better than others, and there were one or two minor glitches, but overall this is an impressive addition to Slasher's ever-expanding catalogue.


By Shadow1000 on 2 September 2014

Overall this game is a lot of fun. As noted in the description, the game is going from room to room solving puzzles to acquire the elements required to complete a single task.

The graphics and visual effects are pleasing. The sound and music are appropriate. The voice acting is a nice touch but something about the voices sounded off as they were not recorded clearly.

A very mysteriously good Doors puzzle quest game.
