The Marionette is a full-length 2D adventure game viewed from a first-person perspective, where you play as a sculptor named Martin who is in the middle of completing his latest work when a mysterious package arrives in his mailbox. He loses consciousness just moments after opening the plain-looking envelope, and wakes up much later only to find himself standing outside an unfamiliar house.Unperturbed by the strange turn of events, he heads into the house to seek for answers that will explain how and why he was brought to the spooky estate in the first place.
