"The Darkside Detective and Sequel A Fumble in the Dark Now Available"

Akupara Games has been on a roll, recently releasing Zoeti, a thrilling deck-builder, followed by The Darkside Detective, a captivating puzzle game, and its sequel, The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark. Both titles are now available for fans to dive into the intriguing world of detective work with a twist of the supernatural.

What's The Scene In The Darkside Detective?

The Darkside Detective opens on a misty, fog-laden night in Twin Lakes, a city where the bizarre and the spooky are part of everyday life. You'll step into the shoes of Detective Francis McQueen and his charming yet occasionally bumbling partner, Officer Patrick Dooley. Together, they form the Darkside Division, the underfunded yet essential unit of the Twin Lakes Police Department. As players, you'll navigate through nine engaging cases, immersing yourself in the quirky and hilarious universe of The Darkside Detective and its sequel, A Fumble in the Dark.

In these point-and-click adventures, you'll tackle a range of oddities, from time-travel mysteries and flesh-eating tentacles to uncovering secrets at a carnival and dealing with mafia zombies. To get a glimpse into this unique world, check out the trailer for The Darkside Detective below!

Will You Try The Games Out?

The Darkside Detective series is a delightful nod to pop culture, filled with references to classic horror movies, sci-fi shows, and buddy cop films. The cases boast intriguing names such as Malice in Wonderland, Tome Alone, Disorient Express, Police Farce, Don of the Dead, Buy Hard, and Baits Motel. What sets these games apart is their ability to inject humor into every pixelated detail, making for a memorable gaming experience.

If you're intrigued by The Darkside Detective, you can pick it up on the Google Play Store for $6.99. And don't worry if you haven't played the first game; you can jump straight into A Fumble in the Dark, also available on Google Play.
