• WHAT’S THE STORY BEHIND THE HOUSE OF DA VINCI? •
You are Da Vinci’s most promising apprentice. Your master, Leonardo, has disappeared. You have no idea where he’s gone or what has happened. So you begin your quest, your search for the truth. However, Leonardo's workshop is full of puzzles, inventions, escape mechanisms and objects hidden in all corners of beautifully decorated rooms. You’ll need to use all of your brain cells to find out what’s really going on!

We’ve applied our own imagination to the story of the world’s greatest inventor, Leonardo da Vinci, providing players with unique special abilities throughout gameplay. We allow you to warp back into your early days as a young apprentice, exploring the 16th century world around you, peeking into Leonardo’s mechanisms, puzzles and devices, as you eventually become powerful enough to control time itself and learn the secrets hidden in the past.

Many challenging puzzles are inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci's real inventions and ideas. Mysterious locations were created based on original artworks and the wonderful Florence, Italy of 1506.

Ratings and reviews

It's fun, but the controls are terrible, like super sensitive. I barely swipe, and my screen does a full 360. Not to mention, there are barely any control settings, so you can't customize to the way you like it. They also have no reset puzzle button, so if you want to reset a puzzle just in case you get stuck on it and try to do the walk-through version, you have to reset the whole chapter and start from the very beginning, which is time-consuming and not worth it in the end.

I wanted to like this game. The puzzles themselves are decent, but the actual gameplay is brutal. I've spent entirely too much time pressing and swiping on buttons and switches I can clearly see, only to have nothing happen because I'm not touching the exact fraction of a millimeter of my screen. I could go on, but don't have enough characters to cover all my other gipes. It's a shame, because it seems like there's a good game under this nonsense, but as it is it's pretty much unplayable.

Great game overall. For a puzzle game, this has spectacular graphics and breaks the mold creatively; levels used a wide variety of skills and could be challenging at times; it's not just finding hidden objects. The environments were all unique. The hints in-game start with vague, gentle nudges and escalate to more direct pointers, and I loved knowing that the first tap wouldn't make me feel guilty. Bravo all around.
