Key highlight

Details

Overview

From the team behind Oto-hime... comes a new interactive fiction that blends gothic mystery with supernatural dread.

LaurEli & the Blood Dipped Manor places you in the role of detective Laura Le Fanu, who, after an accident leaves her reliant on a wheelchair, moves to her uncle's castle-like estate in rural Rhode Island. The manor is staffed by a handful of maids and a mysterious butler named Eli, who quickly forms a bond with Laura.

But when a maid is found dead and a storm traps everyone inside, the detective must piece together the truth—unaware that a vampire walks among them.

Choose Your Own Adventure: Your decisions shape the narrative, leading to multiple branching paths and endings.
Exploration & Puzzle Solving: Investigate the manor, examine clues, and solve puzzles to uncover the mystery.
Point & Click Interaction: Classic point-and-click mechanics make the investigation intuitive and immersive.
Atmospheric Visual Novel Presentation: Richly illustrated scenes and character interactions drive the story forward.
Single-Player Experience: A focused, story-driven journey with no multiplayer elements.
Steam Achievements: Unlock achievements as you progress through the tale.

Who It's For

If you enjoy narrative-driven games where your choices matter, and you have a soft spot for gothic horror with a vampire twist, this is a title to watch. Fans of visual novels, interactive fiction, and classic adventure games will find familiar ground here.

The inclusion of a wheelchair-using protagonist also offers a fresh perspective rarely seen in the genre. Since the game is currently in English only, players comfortable with English will have the smoothest experience.
