The wait is over. Peanut Button — the acclaimed indie studio behind The Secret of Retropolis and Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye — has officially released the complete version of Riddlewood Manor on the Meta Quest Store. Priced at $14.99, this hand-drawn VR horror-comedy has graduated from Early Access with the full story, fresh areas, quality-of-life upgrades, and secrets waiting for every kind of explorer.
What Is Riddlewood Manor?
The manor wants you dead. That’s not a figure of speech — it’s the premise. Every creaking floorboard, locked door, and shadowed corner hides a trap. Yet somehow, it’s all delivered with a twinkle in its eye: this is horror-comedy at its most charming, blending spooky atmosphere with dry wit, hand-painted visuals, and puzzles that test your brain more than your nerves.
You arrive at the gloomy estate with one goal: uncover the tragic truth behind the Riddlewood family — and get out alive. What began as a slice of Early Access back in April 2026 has swelled into a full, sprawling adventure that rewards returning players with everything they asked for.
What’s New in the Full Release?
This isn’t just a polish pass — it’s the game Peanut Button always intended to make:
- The complete story — every chapter, secret, and twist now woven into one cohesive narrative
- New areas to explore — previously sealed wings, hidden passages, and shadowed chambers have been thrown open
- Brand-new map system — never get lost again; track your progress across the manor’s maze-like layout
- Secret endings — your choices shape how the haunting concludes; multiple outcomes await sharp-eyed players
- Full voice acting — every ghost, ghoul, and grumpy presence speaks with character and personality
- Localised for 12 languages — English, Simplified Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Spanish
Built for VR — Comfort and Choice
Riddlewood Manor runs beautifully across the entire Meta Quest family — Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest 3S, and Quest Pro — and respects how you want to play:
- Seated or standing — no motion sickness required
- Controllers or hand tracking — point, gesture, or grip; your call
- Jump scare warning toggle — keep the atmosphere without the surprise
- Early Access owners upgrade for free — already bought it? You get the full version at zero extra cost
From Retropolis to Riddlewood
Peanut Button has carved out a reputation for stylish, thoughtful adventures. Their Retropolis duology earned praise for vibrant worlds, sharp writing, and unforgettable characters. With Riddlewood Manor, they’ve traded sci-fi neon for gothic gloom — but kept every bit of that signature heart. The art style remains instantly recognisable: hand-drawn, expressive, and packed with personality. The tone? Equal parts spooky, silly, and sincerely touching.
The Verdict — Worth the Wait
Early Access feedback directly shaped this release. The map system? Player-requested. The expanded areas? Driven by community hunger for more. The result is a game that doesn’t just feature an audience — it was built with one. At $14.99 for a complete story with multiple endings, it stands as one of the most distinctive VR adventures of the year.
Step Inside — If You Dare
The Meta Quest Store page is live right now. Whether you’re returning to finish what you started or stepping across the threshold for the very first time, the doors are open. Just remember: the manor has a sense of humour. It might not be a nice one.
