Description
About This Game
Wound Man is a macabre jigsaw puzzle adventure where anatomy, history, and obsession intertwine.
Piece together haunting, centuries-old medical illustrations and uncover the story of a being stitched together from humanity’s darkest curiosities.
A Body of Secrets
Each puzzle is more than an image - it is a fragment of something greater.
Search carefully. Hidden within every puzzle are secrets waiting to be uncovered: elaborate collections, alternate paths, strange mini-games, and fragments of a story that refuses to stay buried.
Curiosity is rewarded. Completion is not guaranteed.
Restore What Was Lost
Wound Man is not whole.
His body has been scattered, his past obscured, and the one he loved has faded from existence.
By uncovering hidden truths and assembling what was torn apart, you may yet restore what time has erased.
But some things are not meant to return unchanged.
A Cabinet of Curiosity
Beyond the puzzles lies a deeper obsession.
Uncover over 170 strange and unsettling artifacts, each hidden within the fabric of the game’s anatomical worlds. From peculiar creatures to forgotten instruments, every discovery expands your Cabinet of Curiosity, a growing archive of the bizarre and the macabre.
Some are easy to find.
Others demand patience, precision… or something more.
Completion is not required.
But for those who seek to understand everything, the Cabinet holds many truths.

The Story
Wound Man is a tulpa, an entity born from thought, given form through centuries of anatomical illustration.
Once a tool of knowledge for surgeons and scholars, he has endured endless suffering in silence.
Yet he is not alone.
A presence once bound to him, now lost to time and obscurity, lingers at the edge of memory.
Through your actions, her fragments may be found… and perhaps, restored.
