The Secret of Grisly Manor

Fire Maple Games

About this game

Grandpa always was a little eccentric. A fantastic engineer, he was always buried in his work, always coming up with new ideas and inventions that as a child held you wide-eyed in awe.

Now, after many years, you return to the house that holds so many fond memories for you, with a promise from Grandpa to show you something truly amazing. You can't even begin to imagine what it could be!

It's a dark and stormy night as you arrive at Grisly Manor. The rain beats down hard, lightning flashes in the sky as the sound of thunder fills your ears. You already feel a little creeped out, but when you make your way inside, the house is curiously empty. Grandpa is nowhere to be found!

But his presence is everywhere.

Familiar objects have been re-engineered to create puzzles for you. Clues abound, and as each puzzle is solved, the solution to others present themselves. As well as new puzzles, of course.

Grandpa obviously spent a lot of time making sure that nobody could solve the myriad of puzzles strewn about the house. Nobody but you, his favorite grandchild...

Ratings and reviews

I loved the atmosphere on this one: kinda creepy but somewhat comforting at the same time. The puzzles were fairly simple and I was able to finish this in under an hour. A nice game and enjoyable, but just a bit too short and easy for me!

This game is a must have. I've played all the Fire Maple Games, and this is one of their best. Fun game play, easy to remember where everything is, great storyline, excellent graphics, and moderate difficulty. This is a fire maple classic and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know fire maple games.

It's a very good game if you enjoy things in the style of Myst. But, if you've played Myst, this will be very easy. Took me less than 30 minutes to complete. It's fun and well put together, so I recommend it with the caveat that if you are proficient at these types of games, it's not challenging.
