Enigma Chamber

Story

Deep within the heart of an ancient and mysterious castle lies the legendary Enigma Chamber, a place many believe to contain unimaginable treasures and secrets, yet none were successful in unraveling its mysteries.

Now, it is your turn to take on the role of an adventurous explorer, ready to embark on a thrilling escape experience unlike any other.

You, a treasure hunter, find yourself standing before the Enigma Chamber’s heavy wooden and stone doors.

The chamber’s reputation as a formidable challenge precedes it, but your curiosity and determination drive you forward.

As you enter, the doors slam shut behind you and you lose consciousness. When you awaken, you find yourself immersed in an enigmatic world filled with puzzles, hidden clues and riddles.

The room is adorned with ancient artifacts, peculiar symbols, and cryptic writings, all hinting at the path to uncovering its secrets.

The only source of light is a single flickering candle, casting sinister shadows across the stone walls.

A voice echoes from an unseen speaker, welcoming you to this mysterious place. You must use unique perspectives to uncover hidden clues, decipher mysterious codes, and unravel the secrets of the chamber.

Each puzzle you solve brings you one step closer to finding the ultimate prize hidden within, a legendary artifact said to grant unimaginable powers to its possessor.

However, be warned: the Enigma Chamber is not only a test of intellect; it challenges your wit, your logic, and your ability to think outside the box. As time passes, the tension rises and the pressure intensifies.

The Enigma Chamber awaits. The choice is yours. Can you solve the puzzles and escape?

About this project

Enigma Chamber is a prototype game that was originally created in 3 days for a mini game jam, where it placed 3rd.

The game was ported from Unity 2022 to Unity 6.5.

Somes changes/improvements were made:

-Some UI coloring was made to the buttons;

-Player candle doesn´t clip through walls anymore;

-Items in the 3d world become transparent when picking them rather than disappearing, this way the player knows where to put them back.

-Minor text changes were made.

-Fixed a bug where Vsync was creating graphical glitches when in window mode.

The game might not receive any more improvements as I am very busy with IRL stuff, work and other projects with higher priority. 

I am aware that there is a LOT to improve and add, but I still hope it's somewhat enjoyable or educational in some way if you are learning to design your own game.

This page is a re-upload of the original game, as the previous itch.io page was unexpectedly taken down by its original host.

I was responsible for the game's overall design, programming, project structure and systems integration, as well as sourcing and integrating some of its assets and maintaining the source files of the game.

The project was originally developed as part of a team during the game jam. I will gladly credit the other team members if they message me with their itch.io names. Credit where credit is due.

Note: The only AI generated asset used was the title screen background.
