The Ghost’s Riddles

A ghost has been alone in this house for ninety years. She is bound here until her riddles are answered, and you are her first visitor in a very long time.

Chat with her, solve riddles, and watch the house come back to life, one room at a time. Wrong answers get a gentle spark. Right ones earn a light, a little warmth, and a kinder word from your host.

Features

• 100 riddles across 10 rooms, from the gate to the tower.
• A warm, funny ghost who jokes, teases and never repeats herself for long.
• Story choices at the end of every room (and a few in between) that change how she feels about you.
• 4 endings, depending on your choices and the gems you find.
• 12 hidden gems and a few Easter eggs: tap the moon, the chimney and the odd corners of each room.
• A story journal that keeps track of your choices and what happened.
• Hard mode: no free hints, no pleading and only two flames.
• Gentle, optional background music (music box, soft pad or rain), off by default.
• Saves automatically, with an interactive tutorial.

How to play: type your answer in the box, and spelling doesn’t have to be perfect. Use Plead for a bigger hint, but it costs a flame. Wander between rooms with the drop down and tap things that look odd.
