Mysterious Manor Walkthrough:What is the first thing I should do when starting Mysterious Manor?

Q: What is the first thing I should do when starting Mysterious Manor?

A: When you begin Mysterious Manor, the first priority is to explore the entrance hall thoroughly. Examine the front door, the coat rack, and the portrait on the wall. The portrait hides a small key that unlocks the drawer in the nearby side table. Inside the drawer, you will find a flashlight and a note with a cryptic clue about the library. Take the flashlight because the manor’s power is out, and you will need it in dark rooms. Also, check the rug near the staircase; underneath it is a loose floorboard containing a brass emblem. This emblem is required later to open the basement door. Do not try to go upstairs immediately, as the staircase collapses if you step on the third step without first removing the loose board. Focus on the ground floor until you have the flashlight, emblem, and library clue.

Q: How do I solve the library puzzle in Mysterious Manor?

A: The library puzzle involves arranging four colored books on the correct shelves. First, read the diary on the desk to learn that the order is red, blue, green, yellow from left to right. However, the books are scattered: red is on the floor, blue is behind the globe, green is under the armchair, and yellow is on the top shelf. Collect them all, then place them in the correct order on the empty shelf next to the fireplace. Once placed correctly, the bookshelf rotates to reveal a hidden staircase. Before descending, take the candle from the mantelpiece—it will be your only light source in the tunnels below. Also, pick up the iron key that falls from the bookshelf. This key opens the storage room near the kitchen, where you will find a rope and a rusty dagger. Both items are needed to progress further.

Q: What should I do with the rusty dagger and rope in Mysterious Manor?

A: The rusty dagger and rope are used together in the manor’s well room. After solving the library puzzle, go to the courtyard through the kitchen’s back door. In the courtyard, you will find an old stone well. Tie the rope to the well’s crank handle, then use the rusty dagger to cut the thick vines covering the well’s opening. Once the vines are cleared, you can lower the rope and climb down. At the bottom of the well, there is a small chamber with a locked chest. The chest requires a three-digit code, which you find by examining the runes on the well’s inner wall. The code is 4-7-2. Inside the chest is a silver locket that belongs to the manor’s ghost. Return the locket to the ghost in the attic to receive the master key, which unlocks the final door to the escape tunnel.

Q: How do I escape the manor in the final section of Mysterious Manor?

A: After obtaining the master key from the ghost, go to the second-floor hallway and unlock the door at the far end. This leads to a narrow corridor with a collapsing floor. You must cross by stepping only on the wooden planks with visible nails—avoid the smooth ones. Once across, you enter a room with a large mirror. The mirror is a portal, but it only works if you have the silver locket equipped. Stand in front of the mirror and use the locket. The mirror will shatter, revealing a hidden passage. Follow the passage to a ladder that leads to the manor’s roof. From the roof, climb down the ivy to the garden. In the garden, find the iron gate and use the master key to unlock it. Beyond the gate is the escape route—a path through the woods. Walk forward until the screen fades to black, completing the game.

Common scenarios of "Mysterious Manor Walkthrough"

【Player】 Hey, I'm stuck in the Mysterious Manor. Can you give me a walkthrough?

【Guide】 Sure! Let's start from the beginning. When you enter the manor, you're in the main hall. There's a locked door to the north, a staircase to the east, and a hallway to the west. First, go west.

【Player】 Okay, I'm in the west hallway. It's dark and there are paintings on the walls.

【Guide】 Examine the paintings. One of them is slightly crooked. Straighten it to reveal a hidden switch. Press it to open a secret passage behind the painting.

【Player】 I pressed the switch and a passage opened. It leads to a small study.

【Guide】 In the study, look for a desk. Open the top drawer to find a brass key. Also, check the bookshelf – there's a book that's out of place. Pull it to reveal a safe, but you need a code.

【Player】 I have the brass key. The safe needs a 3-digit code. Any hints?

【Guide】 Look around the study for numbers. There's a clock on the wall showing 3:15, and a calendar with a date circled: the 7th. Also, the book you pulled is titled 'Volume 9'. So the code is 3-7-9.

【Player】 I entered 3-7-9 and the safe opened. Inside is a silver locket and a note that says 'The basement holds the truth.'

【Guide】 Great! Now go back to the main hall. Use the brass key to unlock the north door. That leads to a corridor with doors on either side. Go to the end and take the door on the left.

【Player】 I'm in a kitchen now. There's a stove, a refrigerator, and a pantry.

【Guide】 Check the refrigerator. There's a note inside that says 'The basement key is in the freezer.' But the freezer is locked. You need a code. Look at the stove – the burners have numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4. The note also says 'Turn on the burners in the order of the painting in the hall.' Remember the painting in the west hallway? It depicted a sequence: 2, 4, 1, 3.

【Player】 I turned the burners in that order. A compartment opened under the stove, containing a small key.

【Guide】 That's the freezer key. Use it to open the freezer. Inside, you'll find the basement key and a flashlight.

【Player】 I have the basement key and flashlight. Where's the basement entrance?

【Guide】 Go back to the main hall. There's a door under the staircase that you might have missed. Use the basement key to unlock it. It's dark down there, so turn on your flashlight.

【Player】 I'm in the basement. It's creepy. There are cobwebs and old furniture. I see a locked chest.

【Guide】 The chest is locked with a combination lock. You need to find three symbols. Look around the basement: there's a wine rack, a old grandfather clock, and a pile of boxes. The wine rack has a symbol of a grape, the clock has a symbol of a moon, and the boxes have a symbol of a star. The order is: star, moon, grape.

【Player】 I entered star, moon, grape and the chest opened. Inside is a rusty key and a journal.

【Guide】 Read the journal. It reveals that the manor's owner hid a treasure in the attic. The rusty key opens the attic door. Go back to the main hall and take the staircase east to the second floor. The attic door is at the end of the hall.

【Player】 I used the rusty key and entered the attic. There's a trunk in the corner. I opened it and found a golden crown. Is that the treasure?

【Guide】 Yes! You've completed the Mysterious Manor. The golden crown is the final treasure. Congratulations!
