Corpse Mansion

Corpse Mansion is a survival game set in Helga City after a mysterious bio-contaminant reanimates the dead. As detective Draven Vaughn, you enter the locked-down city to find your missing partner, Avery Lawson, and reach the police station, where Commissioner Frank Lawson is barricaded. The military has sealed the exits, and the search takes you through abandoned high-rises and underground sewers, where each area brings clues and new dangers.

Story and characters

Your decisions affect the story, the survivors you meet and the ending. Dialogue choices and actions shape your relationships with NPCs. You earn friendship points by completing their missions and choosing options they prefer; raising a character’s friendship level can unlock missions, loot and other benefits.

Draven is a veteran detective whose instincts and ability to adapt are tested by the crisis. Avery, a resourceful detective and Frank’s daughter, disappeared while following a lead connected to the ProtoGen breach. Frank calls Draven for help from his barricaded office, unable to reach Avery himself.

Survive and explore

You manage hunger, thirst and rest, scavenge for limited supplies and prioritize equipment in a slot-based inventory. The city’s suburbs, slums and downtown areas contain loot and secrets, and its fully interactable environments let you use tools to overcome obstacles and uncover hidden items. Rescuing citizens gives you access to new resources, and your portable data system tracks your progress.

Combat and crafting

You can use a range of weapons and customize firearms with tactical attachments. At a gunsmith workbench, you can craft ammunition using gunpowder; learning the relevant blueprints lets you craft ammunition or remove parts from weapons. Repairing guns and changing their parts can affect traits including headshot chance, speed, capacity, damage, durability, knockback and stun.

Difficulty modes

The game offers three difficulty modes, which change enemy numbers, loot and saving rules:

• Casual: Reduced enemy spawns, generous loot and flexible saves. You can save at any time outside conversations.
• Survival: Moderate enemy spawns, adjusted loot and saves restricted to safe houses.
• Hardcore: Intense enemy spawns, scarce loot and saves restricted to safe houses.

Shops and supplies

Shop owners have limited stock. Items they buy from you remain in stock indefinitely, while new goods are added over time.
