This guide will be showing you all the things and information that you might need to know about The Inheritance of Crimson Manor.
Introduction
This guide aims to help if you get stuck on your way through the Crimson Manor without having to endlessly search for the info you are looking for in a video.
How to use this guide
Walkthrough
The guide organizes the various parallel campaign paths into one progressive walkthrough with two consecutive main goals:
- Open the Art Room
- Find Hadley Strange’s Legacy
If you have not opened the Art Room yet you should browse the section Art Room: Overview to see which intermediate goals you have already accomplished. If you already opened the Art Room, the Legacy: Overview section is what you should look through.
These overviews also provide summary descriptions of the steps required for each intermediate goal which may already help. If you need more precise information to find your way forward to an intermediate goal you can check the section corresponding to that intermediate goal with lots of screenshots. Finally, there is the Solutions section with spoiler-hidden solution images for some of the puzzles in the Manor.
Items Overview
- Alternatively, you can check the Items Overview towards the end of the guide to see which item can be obtained where and in what room that item can be used.
Penny Dreadfuls
- Last but not least there is a section displaying which Penny Dreadful you can find in which room of the Manor. There are no screenshots of precisely where to find the issue in each room. That would take all the fun out of the hunt.
Feel free to drop a line in the comments if you find faulty or improvable information. I will probably go on working on the guide in the coming days and potentially expand it here and there so stay tuned for that.
