Overview

This application is recommended for ages 6+.

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…

Can you solve the mystery of Grisly Manor?

    Domino 25

    This was a very entertaing game for me. It took me awhile to do it but I am elderly and not as swift as I once was, but it sure was fun and I would recommend it highly for those wanting a challenge. I hope they have more available soon.

    Very intriguing

    I enjoyed this game very much. It took me about 2 hours total to get through it but it was a very FUN two hours. There was a lot of backtracking from room to room, upstairs to downstairs, and inside to outside but that made it all the more interesting. Trust me, you will get VERY acquainted with all the rooms in the house. There was a lot of thought that went into the making of this game.

    Great fun, ended too soon

    This game reminded me of the original MYST, the kind of game i love. Nice, relatively challenging puzzles, which bring a sense of satisfaction when solved. My only (minor) gripe was that it ended suddenly. I would have liked continuing levels. Will be on lookout for part II!

    Staircase unlock answer

    You go into the private studies room which is unlocked by the fuse through the bathroom where you find the fuse is in the grandpas room there is that picture on the wall that looks like a kids drawing match the way the wheels are and go down to the eagles on top of the fireplace and it should give you the fuse! Once your in the study room there will be a key sitting on the desk that will unlock the staircase giving you the tool to open the stump in thhe backyard! Hopefully thats helps you a little :)

    Great game

    This was definately worth the .99 I paid. I love games like this, however, it was just too short and ended abruptly. I hope the next one is longer and more challenging. Very entertaining.

    Program stuck at clock

    After many attempts of closing program, restarting Nook, I finally Googled a walk through. I've verified that I've finished everything up to this point and can go no further. The clock is not responding to the answer. I'm disappointed to say the least. I would like to find out how to contact the developer to ask about a reinstall or a refund.

    A great game

    I loved figuring out the clues and secret compartments. I was bummed when i finished. I thought we'd get to go on more adventures as grandpa traveled.
    Slightly dissapointed at the end- needs another level or game

    Fun game

    It ended too quick! There needs to be an upgrade to add more levels. But it was fun to play
