About This Game

Exhausted Miner Willy returns home to find his sprawling mansion in complete disarray following a raucous party, with his stern housekeeper Maria refusing to let him rest until every item is collected and returned to its proper place. The grand estate—acquired with fortune from his previous mining expeditions—proves far larger and more mysterious than Willy anticipated, concealing a labyrinth of rooms, outdoor areas, and even a private beach and yacht populated by peculiar creatures that hint at the mansion's shadowy past. To finally claim the sleep he desperately needs, Willy must navigate the mansion's depths and uncover its many secrets while gathering scattered debris across its sprawling grounds.
