Akupara Games has been on a roll, releasing an array of exciting titles. We previously covered their launch of Zoeti, a captivating deck-builder, and now they've brought us The Darkside Detective, an engaging puzzle game. What's more, they've released its sequel, The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark, alongside the original. Dive into the intriguing world of these games and see what they have to offer!
What’s The Scene In The Darkside Detective?
The game unfolds on a gloomy, fog-enshrouded night in Twin Lakes, a town where the weird, the spooky, and the absurd are commonplace. At the heart of the story are Detective Francis McQueen and his partner, the ever-lovable yet sometimes clueless Officer Patrick Dooley. They form the Darkside Division, the underfunded arm of the Twin Lakes Police Department. As players, you'll tackle nine compact cases, immersing yourself in the humorous and surreal universe of The Darkside Detective and its equally entertaining sequel, A Fumble in the Dark.
In these point-and-click adventures, you'll navigate through a variety of bizarre scenarios, from time-travel puzzles and tentacle-infested horrors to uncovering the mysteries of a carnival and battling mafia zombies. Check out the trailer for The Darkside Detective to get a taste of the adventure that awaits!
Will You Try The Games Out?
The Darkside Detective is a delightful homage to pop culture, brimming with nods to classic horror movies, sci-fi shows, and buddy cop films. The cases boast intriguing titles like "Malice in Wonderland," "Tome Alone," "Disorient Express," "Police Farce," "Don of the Dead," "Buy Hard," and "Baits Motel."
One of the game's highlights is its ability to pack humor into every pixelated nook and cranny. If you're eager to experience The Darkside Detective, you can download it from the Google Play Store for $6.99. Additionally, A Fumble in the Dark can be enjoyed without playing the original, so be sure to check that out on Google Play as well.
