The Room: Old Sins is a spinoff of the mobile puzzle game series [[VideoGame/TheRoomMobileGame The Room]], released on 25th January 2017. You play again as a FeaturelessProtagonist different from the previous one, only known as 'H'. You are sent by mysterious employers to investigate the disappearances of high society couple Edward and Abigail Lockwood at their home of Waldegrave Manor. The game then starts you at the manor's attic, where a mechanical dollhouse based off of the manor lies. By using your eyepiece you can peer into the dollhouse and interact with it as if it is a full-sized house. From there it is up to you to solve the mystery of the couple's disappearance and to retrieve whatever artifacts they had been hiding. Including, and especially, the Null.
