UPDATE: BOOK 2 NOW FREE! LOWER PRICES!
We’re thrilled with the positive response so far to our story, characters, and artwork. We’ve heard from some of you that you were disappointed that Book 1 ended too soon! You spoke, we listened.
We want everyone’s first visit to Weirdwood Manor to be a memorable one…Book 2 will now be INCLUDED when you buy the app. Book 2 is TWICE as long, has TWICE as many puzzles, and TWICE the secrets to find. We hope that this will help keep our loyal fans intrigued until Books 3, 4, and 5 are released… and incidentally, we’ve dropped the price on those books and the pre-order bundle as well!
What we love about good fantasy is that it really appeals to all ages. We loved it when we were kids and we still love it now. And while Weirdwood Manor fans include kids of ALL ages, please keep in mind that it is primarily a storybook for *children*, not a puzzle game for teenagers or adults.
* For fans who have already bought Book 2 separately, you’ll find that Book 3 (when ready) will be a FREE download.

TO CELEBRATE WEIRDWOOD’S LAUNCH, THE APP WILL BE DISCOUNTED FROM $4.99 TO JUST $2.99 UNTIL NOVEMBER 1ST!

Our story follows the adventures of three children who, while all misfits, each have special talents. Talents they can’t quite control yet…
* Oliver is an orphan who loves to draw
* Celia is a confident and gifted writer
* Eugene is a sci-fi nerd who loves making gadgets
The children win a trip to Weirdwood Manor to meet their reclusive hero — the eccentric writer and inventor, Arthur Weirdwood. Naturally, there’s also a robot butler, a ghost boy who haunts the Manor, and a librarian with more than a couple secrets of her own to hide.
Full of mystery and adventure, our story aims to inspire children to celebrate their uniqueness, recognize their talents, and embrace their imagination.
“The Incredible Tales of Weirdwood Manor” was born out of 5 complementary objectives:
* Tell great a story
* Foster a love of reading
* Promote playful interaction
* Challenge the mind
* Inspire creativity
But most of all, we wanted to bring ‘play’ to storytelling.
