"Parallel Experiment: Mind-Bending Co-op Puzzle Thriller Coming to Mobile Soon"

As we approach 2025, the gaming community is buzzing with excitement for several eagerly awaited releases, and one that stands out is the upcoming co-op puzzle crime thriller, Parallel Experiment, crafted by developer Eleven Puzzles. Set to launch on Steam this March, the game is also slated to offer a demo for iOS and Android devices later this year, with a full mobile release hopefully following soon after.

If you've enjoyed cooperative puzzlers like Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, you'll find Parallel Experiment right up your alley. In this game, you step into the shoes of detectives Ally and Old Dog, who often find themselves in separate locations. The challenge? To communicate effectively, share clues, and collaborate closely to unravel the puzzles and solve the mystery of a ruthless killer.

Parallel Experiment boasts over 80 unique puzzles, an in-game notebook to jot down clues (a nod to the classic detective vibe), engaging cooperative dialogue, and a stylish noir comic book aesthetic. To add a touch of humor and interactivity, players can even knock on windows or poke their fellow detective, enhancing the fun and immersion of the experience.

What's in the box?! And yes, for those wondering, the game will support crossplay, which is a brilliant feature for this release. While coordinating on desktop can be straightforward with tools like Discord, having the option to play with someone in the same room opens up creative avenues for both distraction and communication. It's not just about playing on separate devices; it's about enhancing the cooperative experience in a shared space.

Although the concept of co-op puzzle games isn't new, the genre has seen extensive experimentation and refinement across the gaming world. This ensures that Parallel Experiment is poised to deliver an optimized experience when it arrives on mobile platforms.
