Akupara Games has been on a roll with their recent releases, including the intriguing deck-builder Zoeti and now the puzzle-filled adventure, The Darkside Detective. They've also launched its sequel, The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark, so fans can dive into both games simultaneously!

What's The Scene In The Darkside Detective?

The Darkside Detective unfolds on a gloomy, fog-laden night in the quirky town of Twin Lakes, where the bizarre and the absurd are just part of everyday life. Here, you'll follow the adventures of Detective Francis McQueen and his somewhat scatterbrained yet endearing partner, Officer Patrick Dooley. As members of the Darkside Division—a perpetually underfunded arm of the Twin Lakes Police Department—you'll embark on a journey through nine engaging cases. These adventures blend seamlessly into the humorous and surreal world of The Darkside Detective, extending into its equally entertaining sequel, A Fumble in the Dark.

In these point-and-click escapades, you'll tackle a wide array of challenges, from time-traveling puzzles and tentacle encounters to unearthing mysteries at a carnival and battling mafia zombies. To get a taste of the action, check out the trailer for The Darkside Detective below!

Will You Try The Games Out?

The Darkside Detective is a love letter to pop culture, brimming with nods to classic horror films, sci-fi series, and buddy cop movies. The cases boast catchy titles like Malice in Wonderland, Tome Alone, Disorient Express, Police Farce, Don of the Dead, Buy Hard, and Baits Motel. One of the game's highlights is its ability to pack humor into every pixel, making it a joy to explore.

If you're tempted to try The Darkside Detective, it's available on the Google Play Store for $6.99. And for those eager to jump straight into the sequel, A Fumble in the Dark is also available on Google Play, allowing you to enjoy it without playing the original first.
