Press release:
Bratislava, Slovakia – February 8th, 2024.
The Ružinov-based (Slovakia) indie games publisher/developer Blue Brain Games, are today very proud and happy to announce that their 3D puzzle/adventure game “The House of Da Vinci“, is now available for Playstation (PS5 and PS4) and Xbox (Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One) consoles via digital stores (the second and third instalments will be released later in 2024).

As Da Vinci’s most promising apprentice, you must strive to solve the mystery of your master’s disappearance by solving mechanical puzzles, discovering hidden objects and escaping from rooms filled with Leonardo’s inventions. Dive into an authentic and beautifully recreated Renaissance world and use all your wits to uncover what’s behind your master’s disappearance.

Since its launch, The House of Da Vinci trilogy has sold over 400k copies for PC via Steam and over 3 million units for mobile devices, securing almost 5k ‘Very Positive’ ratings on Steam.

You are Da Vinci’s most promising apprentice. Your master, Leonardo, has disappeared and you have no idea where he’s gone or what has happened. So you begin your quest and your search for the truth. However, Leonardo’s workshop is full of puzzles, inventions, escape mechanisms and objects hidden in all corners of beautifully decorated rooms. You’ll need to use all of your brain cells to find out what’s really going on!

We’ve applied our own imagination to the story of the world’s greatest inventor, Leonardo da Vinci, providing players with unique special abilities throughout the gameplay. We allow you to warp back into your early days as a young apprentice, exploring the 16th century world around you, peeking into Leonardo’s mechanisms, puzzles and devices, as you eventually become powerful enough to control time itself and learn the secrets hidden in the past.

Many challenging puzzles are inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci’s real inventions and ideas. Mysterious locations were created based on original artworks and the wonderful city of Florence, Italy of 1506.

Solve mechanical puzzles – Brain twisters and baffling riddles are all based on Leonardo’s inventions.

Enjoy intuitive controls – Navigate Leonardo’s workshop intuitively. Playing the game couldn’t be more fun.

Experience the Renaissance – War machines, complex lockboxes, mechanical puzzles, room escapes will all test your skills.

Master unique mechanics – Detect hidden objects by seeing through the surfaces around you.

Peek into the past – An unusual gauntlet allows you to witness events that happened earlier and learn more of the story.

The House of Da Vinci is now available for PlayStation and Xbox consoles via the official digital stores. The second and third instalments will be released later in 2024.
