Mother of Frankenstein Vol. 1

Mother of Frankenstein challenges you to solve a series of puzzles in order to learn the truth behind Shelley’s infamous monster. While challenging enough for serious puzzlers, it also features a rich, emotional narrative composed by New York Times bestselling YA novelist Tommy Wallach, which will have you and your loved ones feeling all the feelings.

The game is divided up into three acts, each of which contains a trove of documents and puzzles, all of them beautifully crafted and cunningly designed–ostensibly by Mary Shelley herself–in order to reveal a great secret she left to her only surviving child.

Over the course of the game, you’ll also build a 500 piece 2D puzzle and a 350 piece 3D puzzle, ending up with a gorgeous recreation of Frankenstein’s castle you can keep forever!
