About Maupiti Island

The game centers on detective Jerome Lange, who finds his maritime journey interrupted by a cyclone. This forces his ship to seek refuge at the title location, where a woman's disappearance prompts him to begin an inquiry.

It functions as a nonlinear investigative experience, presented with two dimensional graphics. The scenario involves uncovering various concealed truths within the island's community as the player investigates the case.

This title is a follow up to the earlier game Mortville Manor. The detective's planned holiday is abandoned to pursue the mystery that arises during the storm delay.
