Description
About This Game
In this 30 minute narrative puzzle horror experience, you finish the last tasks of the day inside a crudely beautiful, retro-inspired museum restoration shop.
Thousands of years of history surround you — documented, tagged, and ready for return.
Except for one statue.
...When the other workers stood near it, they felt cold. Uneasy.
He had to admit, he didn’t remember seeing it before.
I guess it’s up to me to clean and catalog this statue tonight, thought Mr. Smiglee.
Gameplay
Examine and catalog artifacts: Physically interact with objects throughout the shop, review documentation, and update records as inconsistencies begin to surface.
Restore damaged pieces: Clean, repair, and prepare statues for shipment using hands-on interactions.
Photograph your work: Capture archival images and inspect them closely — some details are easier to notice in a photograph than in person.
Let's just hope that finicky circuit breaker doesn't give out!
