About
Welcome to Aurora Hills!
Nestled deep within the Appalachian Mountains, Aurora Hills was known for its thriving industry and its picturesque landscape. Owing to the region's natural resources, Aurora Hills was looking to become one of the most prosperous towns in the state.

All is not how it seems, however. A series of disappearances of residents and tourists alike have plagued the region over the past few years, sparking a mass exodus from the small town. Now, in October 1981, the town is a shell of its former self. The prosperity that once blessed Aurora Hills has all but evaporated.
Working as a park ranger, you must investigate what's going on with these disappearances and answer questions that have tormented residents for years. Why has there been an increase in disappearances over the past 6 months? Why are there no traces of the people who went missing? Perhaps most importantly, who, or what, could be behind all of this? It's up to you to venture forth, deep into the national park, to uncover the mysteries of Aurora Hills...
Developed by the creators of Meridian 157, Aurora Hills: Chapter 1 is the first part in series of point and click, puzzle escape room style adventure games. Based in the year 1981 in a small West Virginian community, Aurora Hills follows the journey of Ethan Hill, a park ranger tasked with investigating strange disappearances from the region. Explore the rolling hills of West Virginia, find clues of the whereabouts of the missing people and solve intriguing puzzles to uncover the mystery of Aurora Hills!

Great graphics, good puzzles, definitely getting the next chapter.
Great puzzle game, really makes you think. I will admit that some puzzles I would have never guessed worked the way they do but overall, I look forward to how this series will develop.
Игра атмосферная, красивая, но с головоломками откровенно перебор. Я не про сложность. Почтовый ящик, закрытый на суперстранный кодовый замок? Компас в сливной трубе (!) унитаза? Вы серьёзно? P.S. Диск CD-RW дома в шкафу это шутка или как?)

Way too short for me. But i like the game a lot! The puzzles are challenging but not so hard you nee to look them all up. The built in hint feature is a nice thing as well just in case you are super stuck.
Jogo muito bom! Me diverti muito jogando e batendo cabeça. Recomendo pra qualquer pessoa que goste de mistério e puzzel. Os puzzel são bem criativos alguns fáceis, outros confesso que fiquei preso mas foi por burrice kkk. A história é interessante me instigou a querer saber mais.
Definitely a nice relaxing game with an interesting and immersive storyline. Be forewarned there are quite a bit of puzzles. some are easier than others but nothing impossible. Goes pretty quickly once you get the hang of things. The graphics are gorgeous and the short in game cinematics are almost photorealistic.
The atmosphere throughout the whole game is captivating and the puzzles are clever and engaging. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Enjoyable (free!) puzzle game!
Enjoyed the unpressurized pace of this game and the graphics. Storyline is good too and I found the hints to be helpful without giving too much away. Pleasant way to while away an afternoon.
para quem gosta de códigos e quebra cabeças super recomendo, se você não gosta nem tenta. por que aja paciência , algumas horas tentando consegui zerar. no começo tive dificuldades mais depois fui pegando o jeito e conforme avançamos no jogo aprendemos a gostar, pelo menos pra mim foi divertido , vou tentar no próximo pra continuar seguindo o jogo ,
