Madama Asella, a fortune teller in Coney Island, claims to have the answers you seek about the infamous Mr. X. There is an issue, though. Harry Houdini, the master escape artist, has a mission to uncover those mystics who are frauds. He has his sights set on Madame Asella and he has files proving that she is a fake. Madame Asella has an offer for you. She will tell you what you need to know about your enemy if you take on the master illusionist and find his hidden files on her, which are hidden somewhere in the sideshows of Coney Island. You will need to explore the rides, inspect the secret compartments, and perform some outstanding illusions of your own to be able to match wits with Harry Houdini. Be careful, as nothing is quite as it seems…

With episode 3, I had worried that the slight decrease in quality from the first couple of episodes would be permanent; Trials of Houdini reassures that that's not the case.
This episode is set in early 20th century Coney Island, where you must navigate a series of challenges by Houdini himself. The story is a little contrived, but works perfectly well as a framing device, and once again the text benefits from a careful attention to historical detail that most players will only fully appreciate...
