Mother of Frankenstein, Volumes 1–3

Mother of Frankenstein is a groundbreaking new puzzle game that combines the best of escape rooms, board games, immersive theater, and novels. MoF offers 10–15 hours of puzzles to solve, 2D and 3D jigsaws to construct, gorgeous documents to parse, and mysterious artifacts to examine, all wrapped up in a shocking reconception of the true story behind Mary Shelley’s famous monster.

Releases May 3, 2023

In Volume 2, you’ll follow Mary Godwin, Percy Shelley, and Claire Claremont to a ball at Castle Frankenstein (yes, Castle Frankenstein was a real place). You’ll construct a 500-piece circular puzzle of the castle floorplan in order to work out just what happened that fateful evening. Afterward, you’ll need to solve the puzzles that alchemist Conrad Dippel set for Mary Shelley while educating her in the nascent field of “alvanism”—research that would one day inspire her famous novel.

Releases May 3, 2023

In Volume 3, you’ll return to Castle Frankenstein, which you’ll build as a fully realized 300-piece 3D puzzle (which sits atop the 2D puzzle floorplan from Volume 2). Then you’ll have to solve a set of fiendish puzzles in order to learn how to construct the elaborate origami roofs for the various castle buildings. Finally, you’ll progress through a series of “advent calendar”–style diary entries while searching out details in the castle, each time placing a new window into the 3D puzzle. By the time you’ve finished, you’ll have finally learned Mary’s terrible secret…and created a beautiful object you just might want to keep on your mantle forever.

For the past 300 years, since the Star League collapse and the rise of the Five Successor States, these mortal enemies have fought over space, land, and politics. But a new threat looms just outside the Inner Sphere. The descendants of an old Star League general, the Clans, bred to be the best military force humanity has ever seen, have come to take what they believe is rightfully theirs.

BattleTech: Blood Legacy, Premium Hardback

The Clan invaders have chosen their next objective: Luthien, capital of the Draconis Combine. House Kurita must now fight for survival on its homeworld. Hanse Davion is presented with a situation undreamt of…the final defeat of the Dragon itself. Should he attack his distracted foe and destroy the enemy his family has battled for over 300 years? Or should he reinforce a fellow House of the Inner Sphere against a force that Davion and the Federated Commonwealth might not otherwise defeat when their time comes?

And even if the Houses should somehow agree to stand together against the Clan menace, another just as dangerous threat lurks within their very midst.

Nothing the Inner Sphere has can stop them. The heir to the throne of the Draconis Combine is missing. Whole regiments of BattleMechs lie smashed like abandoned toys. Rasalhague is overrun. The Clans are sweeping toward the center of the known universe in a relentless tide.

Humanity’s only hope is the Inner Sphere’s most powerful traitor. ComStar betrayed the Inner Sphere by aiding the Clans in their conquests. Now the mystic sect that controls all interstellar communication must face the Clan hordes—alone. And a mysterious, elderly warrior—along with the untested warriors of ComStar—is the Inner Sphere’s last defense against total defeat…
