Haiku Games has carved out a niche in the mobile gaming world with their engaging puzzle games, each woven with compelling stories and mysteries. Their newest addition to the Android platform, Puzzletown Mysteries, follows this tradition. The studio is renowned for their Adventure Escape series, which boasts 13 titles, alongside the popular Solve It series.

What’s Puzzletown Mysteries About?

Puzzletown Mysteries offers a classic puzzle experience enhanced by a light detective narrative. Players will find themselves sliding blocks, spotting patterns, and helping two investigators, Lana and Barry, unravel small-town mysteries. These range from missing cats to questionable balcony accidents, embodying the essence of a whodunnit. With over 400 puzzles, the game promises a rich variety, from sorting evidence and merging clues to engaging in hidden object hunts.

Each case begins with a hidden object scavenger hunt, which upon completion, unlocks clues and propels players deeper into the investigation. As players solve these bite-sized puzzles, they earn stars that are crucial for advancing the case further.

It Looks Good Too

Following a soft-launch in select regions a few weeks ago, Puzzletown Mysteries has now gone global. The latest update introduces more tag team levels, a visual refresh for Main Street, and a new Gold Pass. Haiku Games, an indie team passionate about escape rooms and puzzle competitions, infuses their love for the genre into the game, resulting in a fun and cozy experience. The visually appealing, digitally painted scenes add to the game's charm.

If you're in the market for a relaxing puzzle game with engaging minigames, Puzzletown Mysteries is available for free on the Google Play Store and can be enjoyed offline.
