About the Story

Trapped in a thick fog on the moors whilst searching for the house of Dr. Potter, you begin to wonder just what sort of a story will unfold for your newspaper about the strange goings on that have been witnessed at this home... that's if you ever find it.

A rescue mission through 5 rather small eras. Two-word parser, minimalist style. Reasonable puzzles, but has some word-guessing problems and an unreasonable death or two.
