Exciting news for fans of the Pierre the Maze Detective series: *Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective* is making its way to Android devices! Developed by Darjeeling and published by StoreRider, this game is inspired by the beloved Pierre the Maze Detective books from IC4DESIGN, which have sold over a million copies worldwide. If you've ever delved into these books, you'll appreciate the game's art style, which mirrors the dense and vibrant illustrations found in the series. The digital version is just as packed with color and intricate details, ensuring a visually rich experience.
While this marks the Android debut, *Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective* isn't new to the mobile scene. It previously launched on iOS, captivating players with its unique concept. In the game, Opera City transforms into a colossal maze, complete with peculiar corners, chatty characters, and challenging puzzles. As Pierre, the maze detective, your objective is to pursue Mr. X, who has stolen the Maze Stone—a relic with the power to turn the entire city into a labyrinth.
Your journey involves hunting for over 100 hidden objects and trophies while interacting with more than 500 elements in the environment. From clicking on people and signs to birds and other objects, your adventure will take you through diverse locales like haunted houses, treetops, underground cities, and areas adorned with hot-air balloons. Along the way, you'll encounter delightful mini-games, puzzles, and side quests that add to the fun.
