From the Store description:
From an early age, Scarlett Everitt displayed a gift for the paranormal, as ghosts and spirits accompanied her every step. Desperate to protect her from an encroaching darkness, her father, Johnathan, placed her in an orphanage run by nuns. Years later, Scarlett returns to find her dad, and finds a clue that leads her to the Victorian mansion of a baronet named Steameyer.

Here's Scarlett Mysteries: Cursed Child in action:
A typical scene from the game. Around the UI, from bottom left, anti-clockwise, are shortcuts to map, visions (puzzles to reveal certain images), menu, objects that have been collected so far, objectives reminder, hint, and the glowing gold trail is showing the current hint (a cabinet to tap on)...
As the game suggests, up front, crank up your speakers or put on headphones, since there's lots going on in terms of audio.
Part of the cinematic introduction, Artifex Mundi create these mini-movies, artwork and puzzles full-time, and it shows.
Impressively, you can play the game in any of three different preset difficulty levels or, as here, create your own, customised to how challenging you want it to be.
Using a collected piece of tin foil to bridge two connectors. Every object has its purpose somewhere in the game. Or does it?(!)
Mini-games and puzzles abound. Here the challenge is to find the right plugs to fit into the tram's plug board, to get it going.
The psychic 'visions' system opens up visual puzzles, as shown below:
Here you have to rotate all the pieces (I've done most of them) to assemble a scene...
...and here's the final (psychic?) image. It all helps piece together the mystery of what happened (in this case) to your father.
Terrific stuff - if you have patience then put on some headphones and immerse yourself in this atmospheric world. Artifex Mundi's games are available for all platforms, but including Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 10 Mobile, and Windows 10 on the desktop (i.e. x86).
You can buy the full game for £2 or so here in the Store, or there's a trial version for free here.
