Waxworks

Waxworks, released in 1992 by Horror Soft, is a gruesome first-person horror RPG that plunges players into a macabre journey through time and terror. As the last surviving heir of a cursed bloodline, you must explore a mysterious wax museum where each exhibit serves as a portal to a different horrific era—ranging from ancient Egypt to Victorian London.

Each time-traveling scenario features its own dark storyline, puzzles, and monsters, with gameplay blending dungeon crawling, inventory-based puzzle solving, and brutal combat. The game is known for its intense atmosphere, graphic violence, and detailed hand-drawn visuals that push the boundaries of horror in early '90s gaming.

Waxworks is celebrated for its unique concept, eerie soundtrack, and disturbing imagery. Its combination of role-playing elements and point-and-click adventure mechanics make it a standout title for fans of classic horror games looking for a deeply unsettling and challenging experience.
