Evaluation

The House of Tesla originally launched on Steam on September 23, 2025. Following launch, the developer actively gathered player feedback and released a steady stream of updates — six feature patches and several bug fixes between September and December 2025 — progressively reworking chapters, overhauling the hint system, adding new language support, and improving accessibility across the board. On March 10, 2026, the developer released The House of Tesla: Definitive Edition, which represents the culmination of all this post-launch work. This release included a complete rework of every chapter, a rebuilt finale with new puzzles, enhanced graphics, and added Linux and Steam Deck support. Existing owners received this as a free upgrade. The game's title now reflects this "Definitive Edition" status, signaling that Blue Brain Games considers this the complete, finished package. There are no unreleased DLC entries on the store, no announced future content, and no developer communications after the March 10, 2026 launch pointing to additional planned updates. The Definitive Edition release marks the natural endpoint of the game's development cycle.

About this game

We invite you to step into the eerie abandoned halls of Tesla’s Wardenclyffe facility and uncover the story behind one of history’s greatest unfinished innovations: Nikola Tesla's ambitious vision of wireless electricity transmission. You can expect new handcrafted puzzles, hauntingly beautiful locations and challenges for your brain’s gray (or blue) matter. You will be able to look at the world through the eyes of one of the most famous inventors, the father of electricity, the man behind alternating current, the science wizard, Nikola Tesla.

You will need to be industrious and peer under the surface to prevail.

Science brings mysteries toward the light one by one, strips them of their secrets, and makes them part of something greater. It is true that some myths are rooted too deeply, are too resilient, and even seem like having a mind of their own as they resist men of science trying to shine the light of understanding. But in the end, science and mystery are anything but anathema to each other. On one stormy night, a person was brought to this world. A child of darkness and a child of light, full of mysteries and full of scientific curiosity, just starting to build a myth of their own.

You will explore the eerie abandoned industrial buildings of Nikola Tesla’s most ambitious facility in Wardenclyffe, which was meant to become an important city where the future is today and every societal process is improved upon by the principles of free wireless electrical energy.

Through the eyes of the man himself you’ll watch the important moments that lead to the construction and later to the fall of the famous Wardenclyffe Tower, and slowly uncover the mystery that left you stranded among deserted machines.

  • Fresh locations based on real places and plans of the enigmatic Nikola Tesla
