ABOUT THIS GAME

Unraveling Mysteries in Modern Paris

In Modern Tales: Age of Invention, set against the backdrop of Paris in 1900, players find themselves in a world where innovation meets intrigue. During the world expo, an unknown force kidnaps leading scientists, throwing the city—and perhaps the world—into chaos. You take on the role of Emily Patterson, determined daughter of one of the kidnapped victims, and set out on a mission to find her father before it’s too late.

Follow the Trail of Kidnapped Scientists

The adventure begins as Emily tracks a suspicious philanthropist she believes is involved in the conspiracy. As you navigate through cleverly constructed puzzles and iconic locations, the urgency to rescue her father escalates. Each corner turned reveals a new clue, adding layers to Emily's quest. The plots thicken as you encounter characters from history, enriching the narrative with their insights and support.

Iconic Figures and Historical Encounters

Your journey will lead you to interact with some of the most brilliant minds of the era, including Coco Chanel, Albert Einstein, and Ferdinand Porsche. These encounters are not mere diversions; they are essential to Emily's progress. These historical figures bring their own unique strengths to the investigation, assisting Emily in overcoming various challenges and revealing clues about the sinister abductor.

Explore Diverse Locations Across Europe and Beyond

Traveling through 30 locations—from the elegance of Switzerland to the icy expanse of Siberia—players experience a blend of beauty and tension. Each site is meticulously designed to immerse players in the early 20th-century setting, where every interaction is crucial to piecing together the grand scheme. The environments not only serve as backdrop but also as integral components of the unfolding mystery.

A Challenge Awaits with 14 Puzzles and Mini-Games

The game is rich with puzzles and hidden objects (HOs) that test your wit and observation. These 14 unique challenges range in difficulty, encouraging thorough exploration and critical thinking. Successfully solving these tasks unlocks new narrative threads and provides vital information about the nefarious plot against the scientists. Each challenge contributes not just to gameplay but to Emily's personal growth as she faces her father's fate.

Confrontation with a Scheming Madman

As the story progresses, players must piece together a complex web of motivations and loyalties. The true identity of the kidnapper is shrouded in mystery, and it's up to you to expose the villain's plan. Emily’s determination drives the narrative forward, but it is her interactions with others that reveal the broader implications of the kidnapping plot. Will she manage to save her father and prevent disaster?

A Journey Through Time and Innovation

Ultimately, Modern Tales: Age of Invention is more than just a narrative-driven adventure; it's a tribute to a transformative period in history.
