The 13th Doll: A Fan Game of The 7th Guest v1.1.0

PUBLISHER: Attic Door Productions
GENRE    : Adventure
DATE     : 2019/11

The 13th Doll is a game created by and for fans of The 7th Guest series! It
began as an all volunteer, freeware passion project, but evolved into a fully
licensed game.
In the 7th Guest, evil toymaker Henry Stauf built a mansion, and invited 6
guests. A 7th Guest, Tad, snuck in and was trapped there, afflicted by
mystifying spirits, dolls and the ghosts of the other guests - until he
defeated Stauf.
The 13th Doll ties in with the events of The 7th Guest. A decade after Tad
managed to escape the mansion, he is still haunted by the souls, dolls, and
Stauf's victims he left behind. So haunted, in fact, that the young man now
resides in a mental institution - misunderstood, plagued by guilt and obsessed
with one idea: to escape the dreary padded walls of his asylum cell, return to
the mansion - the site of his innermost fears - to rescue those he left behind
and defeat Stauf once and for all!
Soon, a new doctor by the name of Richmond arrives in the asylum. Na<ve to
the legacy of Henry Stauf, and equally bewildered and intrigued by the
fantastic legend, the staunch rationalist plans to take Tad on a cathartic
trip back to the mansion.
This unconventional therapy attempt rapidly turns into a fateful journey,
unravelling Tad and Richmond's contrasting worldviews and leading the unlikely
duo straight into a horrifying vortex of lies, illusions, lunacy and death.
And soon a blood-curdling question arises: Have the two visitors really made
their way to Stauf's harrowing home on their own accord or are they mere
pawns in a much grander, inescapable scheme?
While playing The 13th Doll, a lot of time will be spent navigating through
gloomy sites, concealed rooms and maze areas from an immersive first person
perspective. Thanks to the game being developed in Unity3d, this becomes an
advanced and engaging experience, as the engine allows free movement and a
fully accessible environment in detailed high-definition visuals. For the
first time, players will be able to explore every inch of Stauf's residence
and face all its eerie inhabitants up close and personal. A plethora of
interactive, delightfully animated objects will bring even the most desolate
locations to life.
Logic puzzles were an integral part of The 7th Guest's gameplay, and The 13th
Doll follows suit. We've designed 26 original brain-teasers, all varying in
style and offering a wide array of intellectual challenges. These diabolical
creations are found throughout the game - whether it be card tricks,
pathfinding and chess challenges, or even artificial intelligence puzzles
versus Henry Stauf himself!.
