Calthorpe's Catacombs

Game Description

After the events of an Epidemic that hit Canberra known as the blue virus, the beloved Calthorpe’s house has been turned into a place to store old and rustic bones, due to cemeteries becoming too full of corpses. Calthorpe’s house has gone through major changes during the process, turning into Canberra’s very own Catacombs.

The player has been chosen to clean and sort out the bones that are scattered across Calthorpe’s house. Their task is to grab the bones and sort them out based on whether they are rustic and place them into the right rooms and storage containers. Along the way, the player will also come across audio tapes that were left behind the bone sorter before them.
