This is a narrative rich, atmospheric, psychological horror game.

Sept 2022: Updated to ask if anyone has played the alternate ending? In the old version (the non-digital) requires that you doing something cunning that Agustin thought no one would figure out so he implemented a short-cut in the digital versions

You will compare all others in the genre to this game.

The story:
You are a writer that moves into the empty Blackwood mansion to continue writing your novel.
Or is it empty?
This is one of the many questions you will ask yourself.

It is a huge house with many outdoor areas; every area has something to explore that adds to the story.

There is a lot of reading here that tells the tale of the former inhabitants. Don’t miss a bit of it and you will be rewarded with a story that builds in suspense and slowly, logically unfolds.

Wait until dark, be prepared to lose some sleep and click “play”.

The puzzles are not random; you are given all the info you need to solve the mysteries here, but you must read everything!


With hints enabled Jerry will give you more information when you call. Also, you can track your progress by looking at the time of the grandfather clock. When it has changed, you've reached a milestone.

Gameplay/Fixes:
This is a traditional point and click game.

Use the XP compatibility troubleshooter selecting XP svc pack three.

• Camera speed slow

  This is a special day for me so I decided to play a game that is special for me.
  Oddly enough, in the beginning the narrator states "What we remember never truly dies."
  That is so true and the perfect sentiment for me today.
  
  I've played over a hundred games since I first played this and for me it remains the Best sci-fi game I have ever played.
  
  If only more devs paid attention to details. Fleshed out the story, presented an opening that makes it impossible to put down.
  
  The Game: Can you save the human race?
  
  What a great Point and Click game; it is fair to the player; you have all the information you need to solve the puzzles. No lunar logic was involved in the making of this game.
  
  The devs put so much thought into making this a game for players; you do not wander from one puzzle to the next solving puzzles that have no relevance to the game.
  
  The atmosphere is perfect; it is beautiful and haunting; the loneliness of space is palatable.
  
  The sounds are just amazing. Footprints sound like footprints; steps sound like someone walking at a real pace. Pneumatic door go “whoosh” perfectly in time with opening and closing.
  
  Why are you here? How did you get here? What do you do now? What are you?
  
  This is a story that unfolds as you play; peel it like an onion. Do it slowly and savor it.
  
  You always know your objective via the tab key. You are provided a snapshot and text description. You never have to stop and think “what was I supposed to do?”. On a large ship with different levels, the color snapshots prevented any wandering aimlessly lost.
  
  There are 100 manual save slots, you can enter long descriptive save names in it. That was a great feature! There is no auto-save.
  
  The inventory provides a good description of the item and suggests things the item might be used for.
  
  Play length without a walk-through was about 14 hours.
