Never Be Alone in the Dark Again: The Escape from Crimson Manor: Trapped Together Demo is Coming!

Happy New Year to all our players and followers!

 

We are kicking off 2026 with some news we are incredibly excited to share. We know many of you enjoyed getting lost in the Victorian halls and solving the mysteries of The Inheritance of Crimson Manor. However, that was a solitary experience... until now.

 

Today, we are thrilled to announce that later this month (January) we will be releasing the official Demo for our upcoming title: Escape from Crimson Manor: Trapped Together.

What can you expect from the Demo?

Escape from Crimson Manor: Trapped Together represents an evolution in how we design puzzles. Unlike our previous installment, this is a cooperative multiplayer puzzle game. This means your wits alone are no longer enough; you will need the voice and mind of a partner to survive.

In this demo, you and a friend will test out the core communication and problem-solving mechanics we’ve been perfecting. Following the tradition of great genre staples, the key is asymmetrical communication: one of you holds the clue, and the other holds the solution (or the key!).

 

Return to the Manor

Set in the same universe you already know, this new chapter offers an equally unsettling atmosphere but with a completely fresh dynamic. We’ve worked hard on the setting, the lighting, and creating that fun tension that only arises when trying to explain a complex puzzle to a friend while the clock is ticking.

When and Where?

The demo will be available for download directly on Steam later this month.

This trial is just a small glimpse of what’s to come in the full release, scheduled for the middle of this year. Your feedback during this demo phase will be vital to us as we polish the final experience.

What can you do now?

1. Make sure the game is on your Steam Wishlist (it helps us a lot!).

2. Find your escape partner: you’ll need someone with a microphone and nerves of steel.

3. Stay tuned to our social channels for the exact launch day.

Are you ready to return to the Manor? This time, the way out depends on both of you.

 

See you in the lobby!
