"Mind-Bending Two-Player Puzzles Now on Mobile"

by Claire Jun 28,2025

The mind-bending co-op puzzle game Parallel Experiment is now live on iOS and Android, delivering a fresh wave of thrills for fans of clever, communication-driven gameplay. As the second installment in developer Eleven Puzzles’ Cryptic Killer series, this sequel ramps up the tension and complexity, offering an even more twisted path to uncovering the murderer’s next move.

In Parallel Experiment, players step back into the roles of the two detectives first introduced in Unboxing the Cryptic Killer. This time around, the stakes are higher than ever—you're not just solving puzzles to stop the killer; you’re doing it while trapped together, forced to rely on each other's wits and nerves of steel. Communication is key, and so is your ability to stay calm under pressure as you work through over 80 uniquely designed puzzles that will test both your intellect and your friendship.

Set in a stylish retro-noir world, Parallel Experiment delivers a vibe reminiscent of classic detective stories, with a modern interactive twist. If you've ever enjoyed titles like Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, this game will feel familiar yet refreshingly original. For a one-time purchase of $6.99, you gain full access to the entire experience—no microtransactions, no paywalls, just pure puzzle-solving fun.

Oh, and here’s a fun twist: annoying your partner isn’t just allowed—it’s encouraged! Whether it’s knocking on a window or poking your teammate for a laugh, these playful distractions add a layer of chaotic charm that keeps things from getting too serious.

Beyond the core puzzles, Parallel Experiment also offers engaging minigames and dynamic NPC interactions that respond uniquely to each player. These side activities provide a welcome break from the main mystery while still keeping you immersed in the game's suspenseful atmosphere.

Teamwork is non-negotiable—if you want to survive the Cryptic Killer’s deadly traps and escape with your sanity intact, you’ll need to think fast, act faster, and trust your partner (most of the time).
