Discover and explore the ever-changing haunted Sunshine Manor.

Use Ada’s latent psychic powers to battle all kinds of fiendish demons, solve puzzles and maybe even defeat the omni-present Shadow Man….who is watching your every move! You play as Ada whose night of trick or treating turns into a night of terror when she becomes trapped inside the old Aitken Manor. Sunshine Manor, is a horror adventure game that’s inspired by the famous horror movies of the 1980s. Two games, one cart, are presented in such a unique way that our fans are going crazy for them.” Paul Dolby, developer at Fossil Games, “We’ve also teamed up with legendary horror visual artist, Graham Humphreys, who will be creating a unique cover for the Kickstarter backers which will not be available anywhere else after the campaign has finished! Love horror, love games? Then pledge on Sunshine Manor on Kickstarter – did I mention you can pet the dog?” Whether by intentional design or serendipitous happenstance, it helped me to personally feel more tethered to the game and Ada.“We’d firstly like to say how thrilled we are to be teaming up with Hound Picked Games and Premium Edition and being able to offer our fans a Kickstarter exclusive Collector’s Edition of Camp Sunshine and Sunshine Manor. This harkened back for me to my days of playing Silent Hill 2 or Resident Evil 2. When interacting with an object, Ada often reacts with hilariously flat observations that feel at odds with the eerie nature of her surroundings. Much to my surprise, Ada can interact with anything and everything in the environment, from rusted old cars to grandfather clocks that keep time for nobody. For instance, when initially trodding the dim, abyssal halls, my instinct was to examine as many things as I could. Sunshine Manor doesn’t take itself too seriously however and I believe that it's highly aware of the tropes through which it treads and simply means to manipulate those to tell a fun story of its own. It also isn’t necessarily new to have a smart-mouthed child with more integrity and resolve than most adults as the protagonist. Children that make dares and pay disproportionately high consequences aren’t really new to the horror genre. Narratively, the game isn’t reinventing any wheels.

The development team knew how to keep things from entering tedium and executed keeping players hooked almost flawlessly. I was satisfied with the variety of ways the abilities I had were put to work. Instead of haphazardly chipping away at boss health by using a magical attack, you’re often asked to deflect the boss’s attack back at them or dodge their attack entirely to view that the boss has taken damage. When you are, it's usually a boss fight where how you attack is fundamentally changed. Rarely are you locked into a mano a mano match to the death with a hulking beast.

Even as you traverse the demonic “upside-down” realms of the manor, many of the murderous enemies can be dodged or juked. Attacking isn’t something religiously asked of the player.

Fossil Games took care to develop these mechanics.

Combat is pared down and simple, but highly effective and engaging. These abilities both use the same power gauge, depleting it entirely with each use, giving players a clear choice between fight or flight. In addition to the memory puzzles and exploration, the game's protangonist, Ada has two psychic powers to aid in her quest a speed boost and an AOE attack. In wading through that thorough lack of expectation, however, I found that Sunshine Manor is a tight, well-paced thrill ride, with “less is more” gameplay, a quick wit, and a soundtrack that just hits different in all the right ways. I'd expected to play through it, tolerate it, and go about my day not feeling emphatically one way or another. I’m painting this picture to provide a deeper understanding of my predisposition when sitting down to play Sunshine Manor, an 8-bit horror game published by Hound Picked Games and developed by the two-person team the pixel art game studio Fossil Games. That is to say that 8-bit games were something that I just sort of missed and to this day, I never really feel drawn to them. Having been born with a Sega Genesis controller in my hand, raised by the Super Nintendo and ejected just a few years after the meteoric boom of the 16-bit era ensured that I'd be wrapped up in the state-of-the-art technology my parents were keen to adopt as their first gaming consoles than anything before my time.
