In the game, you get to explore Mostyn House and discover secret passageways and dusty attics that's filled with treasure. Then there's the ever-changing Byzantine Labyrinth that lies under the Mostyn House. As learn more about the house, you’ll get to encounter a huge case of monsters and bosses that includes invisible ghosts, axe wielding madmen, devious witches, and the overgrown undead, to name a few.
Of course, you'll have a fighting chance since along the way you get to gather weapons, distractions, and magical artifacts. You also get to collect keys and crafting materials. Did we mention that you can case a wide range of spells? That's right! It's possible to create hex traps on closet doors, enchant suits of armor, or create a decoy mimic of yourself, to name a few.

A lot of players have probably tried out the game during early access. What's new with the full release?
