"I offer a guarantee—an absolute guarantee—that the tomes will contain the truth on the curse that afflicts you."
Such is the Witch's promise. Is it worth the price she demands?
Can Amadeus discover the truth within the first tome's pages before the moon Aska rises this very night?

Amadeus: A Riddle for Thee is a narrative game heavily inspired by Umineko When They Cry thematically, and Professor Layton aesthetically.
