Parallel Experiment: A Co-op Crime Thriller Puzzler Coming to Steam and Mobile

Eleven Puzzles' upcoming co-op crime thriller puzzler, Parallel Experiment, is set to launch on Steam this March. A mobile demo is also planned for iOS and Android later in the year, with a full mobile release to follow.

The game puts players in the roles of detectives Ally and Old Dog, tasked with solving the mystery of a ruthless killer. Similar to titles like Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, players will often be in separate locations, requiring communication and collaboration to solve over 80 unique puzzles.

Features include:

An in-game notebook for tracking clues.
Cooperative dialogue mechanics.
A stylish noir comic book art style.
Fun distractions, such as knocking on windows or poking your partner.
Cross-platform play.

What's in the box?!

Cross-platform play is a key feature, offering unique communication opportunities whether playing together on separate devices or in the same room. While the co-op puzzle genre isn't new, extensive testing aims to deliver an optimized experience for mobile players.
