Survive the haunted marionettes

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets is a premium adventure game that thrusts into a chilling survival-horror experience, viewed through a first-person perspective. Taking on the role of Jack, you begin with what appears to be a straightforward case, only to descend into a nightmare of macabre experiments and living puppets

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets challenges you to navigate through various eerie scenarios, from an abandoned house filled with children’s experiments to mines infested with giant spiders and a haunted amusement park. The game's thrilling escape mechanics draw parallels with Fears to Fathom: Home Alone and Granny

Tread between fear and strategy

Join Jack in Jack Holmes : Master of Puppets' chilling tale filled with living puppets, rogue animatronics, and other nightmarish entities. After a long job search, Jack reluctantly returns to the family business he had long disowned. As the player, your survival hinges on managing scarce resources like bullets and first aid kits. Explore every corner in search of ammo and health kits, armed with a mixture of curiosity and caution.

The amusement park setting adds a unique twist. Though it seems like a nostalgic distraction, this fairground is anything but safe. Each thrilling ride and attraction hides potential dangers, making it a place where joy and terror intertwine. Beware, for lurking threats transform even the most innocent rides into death traps. Boss battles up the ante, ensuring there is no safe retreat or hiding place from the relentless menacing threats. 

From a technical perspective, the game's high-quality graphics, powered by Unreal Engine 4, enhance the horrifying experience with stunning realism. Additionally, players can save their progress in designated safe zones. With a playtime of four to five hours, the game provides a compact yet intense gaming experience. Though thrilling, it's worth noting that the game contains extreme gore and violence, which might be disturbing for some players.
