Mothbound

A library of illustrated mystery books: escape-room mysteries you solve room by room.

Step into a hand-illustrated scene, search it, collect what you find and put the pieces together. Each book is a self-contained mystery with its own rooms, puzzles and a secret or two to uncover.

The books

The Last Light at Gull's End

A lighthouse keeper's cottage and a lantern gone dark. Free first book.

The Empty Chair at Halloran House

A dinner party, a guest list and one seat nobody will explain. Premium book.

The Gardener of Station Ilex

A quiet orbital station and a record that does not add up. Premium book.

How it plays

Tap to look closer, gather clues and solve each room's puzzles to open the way forward. Stuck? Hints are built in: the first three for every puzzle are free, and optional Ink hint packs, bought in the app, cover the fourth. The first book is free; the premium books are one-time purchases. There are no ads and no accounts.

The illustrations are AI-assisted and directed and edited by the studio.
