Haunted Manor
Ghost the bearing to the attic
Creaking floorboards that turn into holes without warning.
Creaking floorboards open into holes at random. Learn the house and make the attic run clean.
About Haunted Manor
The manor changes on you: floor panels open at random, so a route that worked last run may swallow the bearing on this one. Learning the house — and where it likes to cheat — is how the attic run finally goes clean.
How to play Haunted Manor
Roll the bearing through each chamber and reach the attic hatch, collecting the gems on the way.
Controls
- · Tilt your phone to steer the bearing (allow motion access when asked).
- · Drag on the screen to tilt instead if motion is unavailable.
- · Tap Re-level to recentre the tilt.
Rules & scoring
- · Reaching the goal clears the chamber and moves you on.
- · Dropping into a hole costs one bearing — lose them all and the run ends.
- · Gems add bonus points, and your clear time is recorded.
Tips
- · Short, small tilts beat big swings.
