49 Keys

The year is 1520. You receive a letter from your old mentor, the first step on an unnerving journey like none before. One that shall expose you to the forbidden arcane and all its mystery in which you shall concoct mixtures both wondrous and strange and summon forth beings of other-worldly power. You must steel yourself, for terrors buried deep within shall soon awaken within you, Dantean horrors that bleed into reality. Endure these trials, and, in time, the truth shall draw near. Yet, will you be brave enough to pay its price?

  • An Immersive Literary Feat: Its lauded writing aside, 49 Keys is an audio-visual work of art. Intricately-designed menus hark back to manuscripts of the Middle Ages through to the Renaissance, with a unique art style throughout. Pore over incredible full-color illustrations and feel the thrill as original themes perfectly complement each twist and turn. All this combines for a deeply immersive world.
  • Unique Riddles and Marvellous Mysteries: Akin to point-and-click adventures, 49 Keys has you search through a meticulously-crafted world, collecting items to aid you in solving its myriad puzzles. Read every word with care, for vital clues are hidden within. Put your reasoning skills to the test, and push onward, but fear not—an array of detailed in-game tips are at hand if ever you need them.
  • Directly Adapted From The Best-Seller: 49 Keys was developed and adapted by the original author behind the 2022 gamebook of the same name (49 Chiavi), a best-selling puzzle adventure. Gaining overwhelming praise from critics, it also achieved a place on Italy's 2022 gamebook best-seller list, going on to win two highly-coveted awards that year.
