What is The Stone of Madness?

An isometric, single-player stealth game set in an eighteenth-century Spanish monastery that doubles as a prison and asylum. Across two campaigns, you switch between five prisoners, combine their upgradable abilities, evade guards, and collect clues and tools to escape. A continuous day-night cycle changes conditions, with nighttime bringing tighter security and supernatural threats.
