The title also stands out for its excessive use of gore. But this detail is beginning to be noticed in cities like London, where an unjustifiable dark French blue occupies the entire screen. This can go unnoticed in some areas like Egypt, where players are used to seeing yellow, or in rooms where the palette is balanced. To further accentuate this, this color will have a very high level of saturation while the rest will be opaque and barely distinguishable. This is because being a non-linear game, users could get too much experience in just one period and greatly facilitate what remains of the title.Įach period that the player goes through is made up of a particular theme that executes the domination of one color over the rest. The game eliminates the player's inventory and resets the experience obtained each time the player accesses a new era. Except for the last period, where the witch must be killed, any of the eras can be accessed without a specific order. It is constituted by different combat and puzzle sections and an experience system that will facilitate the fights and riddles. The game is a point and click adventure in first-person. If the player survives all these trips and kills the witch in the last one, the curse will be broken. To save him, he must use the wax figures to travel in time and defeat the evil twins located at different moments and locations in history. This causes that every time two twins are born, one of them will be guided by the path of evil, so the brother of the main character is in danger. Then, he discovers a letter from his uncle in which he tells him how the family is affected by the millenary curse. After the death of his uncle Boris, the main character inherits a wax museum and a crystal ball. The story is about a curse that fell on a family as part of the revenge of a witch named Ixona.
