They've said the house holds many secrets close;
and those who breach its walls this world forsakes.
Search high and low, my friend; no stone unturn,
for he that fails is fated ne'er to leave.
​
'midst tow'ring walls and through the labyrinth deep,
your eyes and wits you need. And lo, take heart;
have faith abound to plunge beneath the keep.
For he that errs may not, by grace, depart.
​
Lift up thine eyes; behold the glorious sight
of fire and stone; of water and of light.
Elude the waning doubt and make no grouse.
For he that does mayn't leave the Jigsaw House.

ABOUT THE JIGSAW HOUSE
The Jigsaw House is a first-person puzzle game. You wake up in an ancient, deserted castle with nothing but a lantern and a sinister narrator urging you to "think" in order to escape. The rest is down to you.
​
Inspired by classic "escape room" puzzles, The Jigsaw House is an experience in thinking carefully and using your eyes and ears to solve a series of complex environmental puzzles in a quasi open-world environment. Taking influences from such games as Portal (Valve), The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (The Astronauts) and the horror aesthetic of Amnesia: The Dark Descent (Frictional Games), The Jigsaw House is a true test of wits, lateral thinking and patience, with ten unique puzzles of varied complexity and a deeply unnerving environment to immerse yourself in.
​
The Jigsaw House (Beta) is available now for $5 from itch.io.
