Mother of Frankenstein is a narrative puzzle game based on the life of Mary Shelley. It is a collaborative experience featuring 12-18 hours of gameplay divided between three volumes. You'll solve puzzles, construct 2D and 3D jigsaw puzzles, and closely read a series of gorgeously rendered documents, all of it designed to tell an exciting and emotional story unlike anything you've experienced in a tabletop game before.
In Volume 1, you'll engage with Mary's education in the fields of poetry, music, and astronomy and track her courtship with Percy Shelley, constructing a series of elaborate spinning rings you'll use to solve a set of ingenious riddles and puzzles.
Mother of Frankenstein was created by New York Times bestselling author Tommy Wallach and Terry Pettigrew-Rolapp. Tommy and Terry are the founders of Hatch Escapes, home of Lab Rat, the #1 escape room in Los Angeles (LA Mag, TERPECA), and the forthcoming The Ladder.
