About this game
Behind the Curtain is a dark, atmospheric puzzle game where precision, logic, and quick thinking are the only means of escaping a fate worse than death. Under the watchful eye of an enigmatic Instructor, you must scrutinize alchemical recipes, verify ingredient weights, and ensure that every rule of alchemy is followed with exactness. If all is in order you may allow the alchemist Behind The Curtain to succeed. If they fail, you condemn them to the same fate you must now endure.
Purgatory is unforgiving. Make too many mistakes or squander your precious time, and the flames of judgment will consume you.
Will you become like those who have imprisoned you here? Must you continue down this path... for eternity? Or is there another way—a secret hidden within the endless cycle?
