Description

Professor Jonathon Faulkner has died, leaving an inheritance of $1,000,000 to the first of his students who can solve the mystery he created in his 10-room mansion. In fact, the first player of this game who submits the correct solution to the game's publisher will receive one million real dollars!

As you explore each room of the mansion, Terry Farrell ("Star Trek: Deep Space Nine") appears in a video clip to give you some clues and insight to the room's mystery. Words and phrases are hidden in each room in the form of word search puzzles, cryptograms, fill-in-the-blank puzzles, or even more subtle forms involving musical and audio clues, and pictures. These words and phrases fit together to form a quote. After finding the quote from each of the ten rooms, an ultimate solution must be deciphered and submitted, along with the ten quotes, to win the prize.

According to the publisher, the $1,000,000 prize was won by P. Dreizen of San Francisco, California, in May of 1998.
