When a storm runs your boat aground on the island of Blackridge, no one from the local town comes to your aid.

That's when you realise that the entire town has mysteriously vanished, leaving behind empty buildings, each one containing a piece of the truth for you to deduce.

Rescue is an hour away; can you uncover the truth about the disappearance at Blackridge?

My favourite of the 3 Escape Envelopes, it seemed to nail the narrative to puzzle ratio. The other 2 are more puzzles with a little bit of story. Blackridge is great, considering its art drags you in with Hitchcock- and Giallo-esque design, but then you get this kind of Shadow Over Innsmouth narrative that I really enjoyed! 

It's a shame there might not be any more Escape Envelopes for a while, but I can't wait to go play the designers' new place, Nomad Escape in Glasgow. I'm curious to see if any of the puzzles from the envelopes have been adapted yet to things in the rooms!

But yes, ths is/was my favourite Escape Envelope.
