As the moonlight dances slowly across your room, your pseudo-sleep is disrupted by a metal squeak from your letter box down the hall. Someone just left a handwritten note, an invitation. "Dear art aficionado. This is an invitation to one of the most exclusive and imaginative art displays. Not only is it an invitation but also an opportunity to show off your own credentials as an artist. Come join us and be part of the creation of something astonishing! Help us redefine and explore the concept of art. While this might understandably turn you a bit skeptical, just know that we’ve done a great amount of research and handpicked only a few individuals that fit our distinct criteria. You are one of those lucky few. Think about it for a moment; what do you actually have to lose? This is an opportunity for you to immortalize yourself among others in the world of art, the last chance to get out of your dreadful life and be part of something bigger." The last sentence hits hard as you think about the recent events of your life. The invitation is oddly intriguing.
Partum Artifex is mainly a puzzle game with an emphasis on story and atmosphere. Throughout the game, you'll be challenged with solving puzzles directly connected to the twisted works and mind of a serial killer. In order to progress you need to put yourself in the killer's shoes, and think like him in order to solve the puzzles. Willingly or not, he wants you to help him finish his magnum opus. By exploration, reading, taking notes, finding items and paying attention to the environment, you'll be able to piece together what happened in this eerie house and what the serial killer is trying to achieve with it. The more you dive into the mind of the killer, the more you'll discover things that are better off being hidden away. Sometimes the truth is better left shrouded in ignorance.
Please, why don't you join me and be part of the creation?
