Unravel a labyrinth of hidden agendas. The mansion itself breathes intrigue, with creaking corridors hiding relics of naval espionage and journals detailing a secret society tied to your bloodline. Each maid harbors a hidden motive: some seek to sabotage you, others to bargain for freedom. Use your authority to blackmail, bribe, or threaten, but tread carefully—the inspector’s scrutiny grows sharper with every lie.
Key gameplay pillars:
1. Power dynamics: Exploit your position to silence rivals, forge alliances, or manipulate events. Blackmail a maid into sabotaging the inspector’s reports, or frame suspects using forged evidence.
2. Branching consequences: Choices ripple through the story. Spare a traitorous maid, and she may become your greatest ally—or betray you when least expected.
3. Environmental storytelling: Decode ancestral portraits, decode ciphered letters, and piece together fragments of a cursed naval artifact hidden beneath the mansion.
Why Takako must stay—and why others want her gone.
The head maid’s loyalty is more than duty; she knows the mansion’s deepest secret. Clues scattered across the estate hint at her ties to a clandestine naval project your grandfather funded. Meanwhile, rumors swirl that the inspector isn’t just hunting corruption—he’s after Takako. Protect her by any means, but discover why her survival is intertwined with your family’s darkest sins.
Prepare for moral ambiguity and shocking twists.
Will you become a tyrant, a puppetmaster, or a desperate fugitive? With multiple endings shaped by your alliances, hidden agendas, and tolerance for cruelty, every playthrough reveals new layers. Unlock secret routes where maids trade favors for freedom, or dive into the mansion’s occult underbelly to confront the spectral force binding Takako to its walls. Power is yours—but at what cost?
