How it begins

The game starts with the IF classic opening 'waking up in a strange location with amnesia'.

From all appearances you've been locked inside a wax museum, that contains several wax figures of famous murderers. All you have to do is now is escape.

This is a game that combines the creepy, weird and engrossing into a well-balanced story.
