The House of Da Vinci is a 3D puzzle game that reminded me of The Room series, though not as polished or intuitive. You play as Da Vinci's apprentice, standing before his locked mansion when a letter from him arrives, warning that his most important invention is at risk. Your goal is to enter the heavily secured mansion and help your master. Divided into eight chapters, each represents a room full of intricate mechanical puzzles. Along the way, you find letters from Da Vinci that reveal more about the story.
The puzzles are complex, though easier than in The Room, as they emphasize mechanical steps over purely logical solutions. You also have the Oculi Infinitum, a special tool that allows you to see inside mechanisms or view past events, which is useful for solving puzzles.
While you can’t move your character freely, you can zoom in on specific objects or parts of the room. However, not all areas rotate fully, and you may need to click multiple times on an object to interact with it, which can become frustrating. The controls feel imprecise, especially when using a mouse to pull levers or rotate mechanisms, as the game seems more suited for touchscreens.
The hint system, although helpful, has a cooldown and can only be activated every few minutes. On the plus side, the sound design and graphics are impressive, with beautifully designed environments and intricate machinery.

I've played all the parts of "The Room" and I already had a certain attitude towards such games. I didn't expect much, though.
Some of the puzzles are easy and some are difficult, but the implementation is really well done, I also like the DaVinci setting. Many things are similar to "The Room", most of the time I wondered if they weren't the same developers, crazy.
The camera controls are OK, but sometimes you click around like a madman to find that one pixel that lets you move on, but all in all a good puzzle game.

The House of Da Vinci - is an absolute gem for puzzle enthusiasts!
The gameplay is incredibly immersive, drawing you into a beautifully crafted Renaissance world filled with intricate mechanisms and clever puzzles. The challenges are well-designed, requiring a mix of logic, observation, and creativity, which keeps the experience fresh and engaging.
The graphics are stunning, with detailed environments that bring Leonardo da Vinci's inventions to life in a visually captivating way.
If you love The Room series or brain-teasers set in a richly detailed historical setting, this game is a must-play!
Highly recommend this gem!

Like The Room and other games such as Myst, this game left me feeling a sense of mystery and frustration all at the same time. There is a logical progression to it all, aye, though sometimes it can be frustrating. Put it down for a few minutes and come back with a fresh perspective and you'll often realize what you were missing on that last vexing puzzle. Overall, a lot of fun. About to dive into HoD II. Looking forward to House of Tesla as well. Cheers!

as a lover of puzzle game series like "room" the game is not bad but also not good at all. some of the puzzles are so unnecesary and sometimes you just dont have any clue where to go until you get hint from game. game flow is just not there sometimes. but if you looking for some puzzle game you may give it a try.

The game shares similarities with The Room series, but with distinct differences. I'll discuss the gameplay and mechanics separately.
Firstly, the gameplay is engaging and intriguing. However, a few bugs and two or three particularly challenging puzzles can make the experience frustrating at times.
Secondly, the mechanics are somewhat mediocre. Mouse interactions with the environment and objects feel clunky.
Overall, the game is enjoyable and worth purchasing in sales. The achievements are relatively easy to obtain. I'd personally rate it a 7 out of 10.
