The eagerly anticipated cooperative puzzler, Parallel Experiment from Eleven Puzzles, faced some unexpected delays that have pushed back its Steam launch from March to June. Now, fans can mark their calendars for June 5th, when the game will simultaneously release on PC, Android, and iOS, promising a thrilling experience across platforms.
For those awaiting the mobile versions, the delay has a silver lining. Initially, the developers contemplated cutting back on optional puzzles, additional mechanics, and possibly even the mobile version itself to meet the original deadline. However, the decision to launch all versions at once ensures that players on every platform will benefit from the full game experience, complete with crossplay functionality from day one.
In Parallel Experiment, you and your partner step into the shoes of detectives Ally and Old Dog, caught in a sinister experiment devised by the Cryptic Killer. To escape, you must collaborate closely to solve a myriad of interdependent puzzles that demand teamwork and communication.
With over 80 unique challenges, you'll be tasked with deciphering codes, manipulating water flows, hacking into computer systems, and even rousing a sleeping drunk. The game's noir-inspired setting and comic book-style visuals create an immersive atmosphere, drawing players into a gripping race against time.

The game isn't all intense puzzle-solving; between challenges, you can engage in retro-style mini-games with your partner, such as darts, claw machines, and match-three puzzles, all designed with a cooperative twist.

Interactive dialogues add depth to the mystery, with NPCs responding dynamically to the actions of both detectives. And for a bit of fun, each level offers opportunities to playfully annoy your partner—whether by knocking on windows, shaking their screen, or scribbling something mischievous in your detective notebook.
With five times the content of their previous project, Parallel Experiment is set to elevate your cooperative gaming experience. The game will launch on June 5th across all platforms. For more details, you can visit the Steam page.
