There is a story behind this special game which revolves around a security master named Rex, who is trapped in a castle around 11th century. There are different kind of rooms such as alchemy room, king’s quarters, old pantry, etc. and each room is so very special and elegant in its own style and some are little dusty. There are many ways to enter the rooms but only one way to escape by finding clues and solving puzzles.

Basically, what you have to do is to keep your eyes everywhere and solve puzzles carefully.

Similarly, as a security expert, you’ve to collect items and they will be automatically zoomed when you click on them to help you better in solving the puzzle. The items which you collect go in an inventory on the right hand side of the screen. Once you’ve found all the clues and all the pieces are in their place, the door will finally open.
