Eleven Puzzles' cooperative puzzle game, Parallel Experiment, has been delayed. Initially slated for a March Steam release, the game will now launch on June 5th across Steam, Android, and iOS platforms. This simultaneous release maintains the planned cross-platform play functionality.
The delay allowed the developers to retain all planned features, including optional puzzles and additional mechanics, originally considered for removal to meet the earlier deadline. Players will assume the roles of detectives Ally and Old Dog, working together to solve over 80 interconnected puzzles to outwit the Cryptic Killer.
The game features a noir-inspired setting and comic book art style. Challenges range from deciphering codes and manipulating water systems to hacking computers and even dealing with a less-than-sober individual.
Beyond the core puzzles, players can engage in cooperative retro-style mini-games such as darts, claw machines, and match-three challenges. Interactive dialogues with dynamic NPC responses add depth to the narrative. The game also includes playful elements allowing players to playfully annoy their partner.
Parallel Experiment boasts five times the content of Eleven Puzzles' previous title, promising a significantly enhanced cooperative gameplay experience. Visit the Steam page for further details.
