Curse of Elmwood: Plunge into the darkness of an old mansion
You stand on the threshold of the Elmwood Mansion. A cold wind blows through the bare branches of the trees, hitting your face and reminding you of the approaching night. The high walls of the mansion seem formidable and impregnable, and deep within them lie secrets that don't want to be revealed. Legends of Elmwood's curse walk the edge of the woods, and locals whisper about the ghosts that roam its corridors. But you don't believe in mysticism, you just want to tickle your nerves. You decide to spend the night in this old house to see if the legends are true.
You enter the hall. The heavy air is saturated with the smell of dust and damp. Portraits of the mansion's previous owners stare at you with cold indifference. You hear quiet whispers from deep inside the house, but no one sees. You begin to feel that you are not alone in this house.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's atmospheric horror setting, mansion design, puzzle variety, and decent graphics, but many report significant progression issues including missing keys, unclear objectives, and game-breaking bugs that trap players in rooms with no way forward. The game shows promise in its concept and aesthetics, but poor level design and apparent bugs at the beginning undermine the experience and frustrate players early on.

it has potential man but you gotta spend some three hours to solve a 30 min worth of puzzle. you could have spent more time on making the game interesting.

Asset flip. Game has intense sun-inside-the-house lighting; loud, contextless thriller music playing one track after another with no actual danger; and AI voice with no AI disclosure on the store page at time of writing this. $1 is too much. Do not reward this scammer.

This game requires quite a bit of walking around and exploring and there is one puzzle that may stump you https://youtu.be/NLeVheoPSsY?si=D7-S8Zj_CXfcLtEP

Disappointing. I wandered up and down both floors until I finally gave up and had to watch a walkthrough video. I had to reload a save when one of the keys just disappeared and I got locked inside the living room. Finally, I gave up after I used the cameroid and was unable to exit the camera mode without ending the game with Task Manager. Also, I think it was just my PC, but this game was way too dark. I could barely see anything, and almost missed one of the doors because of it. Too many bugs, and if there were at least some sort of hint system to make finding items easier, it would be worth finishing.

Got locked in the first room you opened with the key, it seems you have to take a photo of a painting but you don't have a camera and can't get out of this room. Discussions show there are more people having this exact problem. Scam, don't support !!!

Just because you can make a video game doesn't mean that you should make a video game.
