---------------------------

In "Curse of Aterwood Manor" you play as Detective Elias Aterwood, who inherits a mysterious, abandoned mansion rumored to be haunted.

As you explore its eerie halls, you discover an empty painting in the mansion's scriptorium. To unlock the secrets of the mansion and its ghostly inhabitants, you must collect painting pieces scattered across rooms, each tied to the spirits of the previous residents. 

Along the way, you'll solve puzzles, confront apparitions, and unravel the tragic fate of the family. But as the truth unfolds, so does your own connection to the curse. Will you escape the mansion's grasp or become a part of its haunted legacy?

Known bugs:
-If you're stuck at the harp puzzle, you have to use B > Down > A to get out as the choice dialogue doesn't show up. (The answer to the puzzle is Mi Do Mi So Mi Ti)

Fixed in version 1.1

-The loading of the painting pieces can be inconsistent. If they do not update correctly when finding new pieces, try going back and looking at the painting a second time. ( in case it still doesn't load you can see the full painting below)

Fixed in version 1.1

Thanks for playing !
