Parallel Experiment: A Co-op Crime Thriller Puzzler Coming to Steam and Mobile
Eleven Puzzles' highly anticipated co-op crime thriller puzzler, Parallel Experiment, is set to launch on Steam this March. A mobile demo, with a full release to follow, is also planned for iOS and Android later in 2025.
This unique co-op experience channels the spirit of games like Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. Players take on the roles of detectives Ally and Old Dog, often working from separate locations, requiring communication and collaboration to solve over 80 intricate puzzles.
The game features an in-game notebook for clue tracking, cooperative dialogue, a stylish noir comic book aesthetic, and even playful distractions like knocking on windows or poking your partner.
What's in the box?! Cross-platform play is a key feature, adding a unique layer to the co-op experience. While desktop players can easily communicate via platforms like Discord, mobile players will find creative new ways to interact and distract each other.
The co-op puzzle genre has seen extensive development, promising a polished and engaging experience on mobile.
