What could be so important to say – and requiring such careful consideration, no less – that one would hole themselves up, typing madly like ticker tape for days on end, yes? I should very much like to read another letter for myself, one of these days. Speaking of, I might soon fetch the mail again, yes.

QUEEN ANNE'S LACE is a hotel-themed anomaly horror game (a la The Exit 8, The Cabin Factory, and other genre classics) with a twist: you hide the anomalies for your guests to find.

As the Night Auditor at the Queen Anne's Lace hotel, your job is to curate an experience for your guests that will keep them from ever checking out. Your subject in this short experience is Bill — over the hill, full of regret, and recently checked in to room 402. 

Hide anomalies (or not!) around the 4th floor, and watch from the Showroom as he tries to find them.

FEATURES

• Draft your favorite of 3 anomalies each round, pulled from a pool of 15 unique total anomalies, and hide them from Bill

• Play against an intelligent AI agent that searches the hotel in a believable way

• Be rewarded for hiding anomalies in good spots, as Bill will find them more challenging to spot

• Enjoy the looping original title track, faithfully written and recorded in a retro 1960s style

• Solve a short meta-puzzle for hints and additional lore 

• Short & sweet (~20-30 minutes) 

• Watch out for other Patrons
