Jane Austen's Estate of Affairs is another HOPA casual adventure in Legacy Games. The production is addressed mainly to lovers of literary work of the English writer Jane Austen (1775-1817).

The plot of the game refers to biographical motifs, as well as the most important novels written by Jane Austen (e.g. Pride and prejudice and Prudent and romantic). The action was set in the 19th century. The main character, Christine, is the writer's niece, who arrives in succour when she learns about problems in her family residence. A young girl wants to find a lost manuscript of an unpublished novel by her aunt, which can save the property. Unexpectedly, while searching, he also discovers the love of his life.

Game mechanics combines tasks like "hidden objects" (more than 20 scenes depicting places related to the life of Austen such as Chawton House) with uncomplicated mini-games of logic. The difficulty level of individual puzzles is not too high, and additionally players can skip some of them or use a simple system of hints.

From the technical side, Jane Austen's Estate of Affairs is based on solutions known from previous casual adventures of Legacy Games studio (e.g. The Lost Cases of Sherlock Holmes 2). The artists used two-dimensional graphics with hand-drawn backgrounds and simple animations. Cartoon feature interludes with fragments of Jane Austen's prose attract attention.
