A new lead arrives in the form of a mysterious locked box, delivered directly to their addresses. Detectives Ally and Old Dog are once again sent on a chase that'll challenge them unlike any case before. Explore new locations, crack codes, and unravel the mystery. In this prequel, you're invited to step into the detectives' shoes and return to where it all began.
THE ONLY WAY TO ESCAPE IS TO WORK TOGETHER
Two minds are better than one, and the only way you'll be able to crack the Cryptic Killer's codes is by working together. Through separate screens, you and your friend will each be given half of a puzzle at each location. Communicate, collaborate, and work together to push your puzzle-solving skills to the limit.

Community Insight:
BRO YOU GUYS WORKED AS CO WORKERS FOR SO LONG BUT YIU DONT HAVE EACH OTHERS NUMBERS?? Also MOVE THE GODDAMN BOXES THERE IS TWO LARGE BOXES JUST REMOVE THOSE PLS. Either ways amazing game super fun BUT THAT LIGHT PUZZLE IS TORTURE IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL Also the creativity of making this game is top notch.
Challenging enough to be fun, but not so challenging as to be frustrating. Super fun time.
Played this with our potential spouse, we had a great time working together. Thank you.
This made us want to play the other game, it was so much and the puzzles were hard enough to be entertaining but not so hard you got frustrated. 10/10 would play again.
We were surprised that a game of such high quality was free! The multi-player coordination was perfectly in-sync and the puzzles were fun. Unfortunately, to totally solve the mystery you have to buy the second part in a separate app. Altogether it was worth the download and was very fun.
We enjoyed playing this with our best bud.
It was a really fun game but theres only three levels and there is a spin off game, but It cost money. Wish there was more.
It was an okay game but it ended then directed us to the full part and you had to pay for it good game but not paying money for it they knew what they were doing.
So we don't really have any one to play this game with and we think a lot of people would agree that the developer of the game should make a single player version that's just like a single detective story kind of thing. But other than that we think the times we do play with our friends and family it's a pretty good game overall and people would like this game if they like detective games that make your brain hurt. Also strategy games and puzzle games because all of that is incorporated into this game.
Our boyfriend sent us this while he was working in Texas. We played while talking on the phone and got caught up for 2 hours! We finished playing when he got home, while hiding our screens from each other to keep the integrity!!! This was absolutely a blast and we would recommend to everyone.
Not very clear that this is a demo.
This game made us lost so much brain cells, Because we hardly understood what was needed and getting a realization but our boyfriend worked his way out and guided us.
It was super fun, would definitely love to play more of this. We wonder when the new game will come out.
Our only thing is we wish it was longer , but really great taste of whats to come! Ill pay for the rest no problem yall did this well! Love the whole idea of working together Incan imagine how much longer and funnier it'd be if our partner & we weren't in the same room lol.
Pretty decent game, helps us and our girlfriend work on communication. She cried once. It was kinda stressful but very fun.
It was a great game wish there was more levels to it and once we saw there was a second version we were excited till we saw the price of $5.99 kinda bummed bc we were seeing the reviews and seems like the other version is short as well wished it was a bit cheaper and extended, otherwise great game been a while since Ive had this much fun on Mobil games.
Enjoyed this very much and had a good time playing with our fianc.
We enjoyed this game a lot and it really made us use our brain with our partner LOL but we loved it so much it was so good! However it was too short.
We thought the design of this game was highly compelling, intuitive, and unique. Great jobs to the developers for managing to accomplish something was a unique style of art and gameplay. Wish there were more free levels ofc but would still recommend as worth playing for sure.
This game was super fun to play and we can't wait to play the next part.
This game is AMAZING! Soooo fun putting the puzzles together as a team.
It was a pretty fun game. Which was about 1-2 hrs. Fun to figure out the puzzle together and know what exactly to do.
This game left us and our friend shocked and its jaw dropping. This is our favorite game ever.
Ive been looking for some at-home activities to do with our boyfriend besides just watching TV and this game was PERFECT! What a great way to spend time together.
Lo recomiendo mucho, es muy entretenido y creativo. Us encanta.
We wondered why the reviews for this game werent all that great, and to no surprise at all its because people are single-celled. Its a short, free demo to introduce a concept. Why people think theyre entitled to so much more for a free indie game is beyond us. Treating installing a game like its so much effort for a short experience, and therefore a waste of time, is a moronic take. We played with our friend and we had a good time. The gameplay was great and the art style looked really cool. The storyline itself isnt particularly interesting, but we also understand the appeal is from the puzzles rather than the actual story so it doesnt bother us.
We loved this game! A great prequel and the real game is a ton of fun too.
Hi we have recently downloaded unsolved case with one of our friends , one night we played the first level of the game and then we exit it , the next day no matter how much we tried, we couldnt enter the previous game nor create a new one. Would you guide us how we can play the game again. Thanks.
Please make a Spanish version, we don't speak English and sometimes it's difficult for us to play since we don't know some words Other than that 10/10, 5.
We have a long distance relationship and whenever we have down time we like to either watch a movie or find a game. AND WOW this was definitely a 5 star experience. We love puzzles but most importantly we loved the fact we just had something to do with each other. Its kinda short but we would definitely clear at least 2 hours to really get into it. Getting part 2 soon. Give it a try.
Fun game, started playing with our best friend not long ago and its very entertaining, but we can never finish the game in one go, and every time we go back to it, we have to restart and its kinda annoying, wish there was some way to save your progress, other than that- the game is a fun little way of passing time.
Recently we have played this with our partner and it was fun to say the least of how the game was played out and for us personally made us want to know more of what was to come for the game (weirdly enough it kinda reminds us of a escape room without a time limit) but, the only complaint really is that we wish there were more clues maybe for the two players to go off on. Nevertheless, we really enjoyed the game and am looking forward to the complete game.
Wouldve been good if there was an actual ending.
This game is so much fun very hard (maybe im just dumb) but leaves u on cliffhanger & next game is CHARGE DONT GET but love the game sm fun okay.
Our friend and we loved this game but were so mad about the cliffhanger and that you had to PAY to see the next part.
It was fun we played with our friend but when we first downloaded it we didn't know it was co op it was our fault but would like to see single player on it we think it will be fun just to play by ourselves.
It is a really good game, its fun but when us n our friend played it, on her ipad the screen was way smaller and not everything that would normally fit on an iphone didnt fit her screen. Its also not a replayable game.
To little content, too much meaningless story.
The game was fun at first..but then the more you get into it you will get more enjoyment then suddenly the games end so that was quite weird and not fun.
Its very fun but once you get through we think 3 or 4 puzzles it ends and tells you that you can continue in the next game, but the next game costs 6 dollars. Its fun but it would be nice to have many levels in that same app.
We were enjoying this game a lot but why the cliffhanger? Then the second game costs money? Please change this.
It was good. Thanks for creating this kind of game. There should be more cooperative games like this.
Do not get unless already detective or go to harvard.
We Almost died due to lost of oxygen from laughter. Dont even remember how we solved the puzzles. This made us realize our friend is an idiot.
If you want a good game this is not it.it is a multiplayer game. If you do not have a multiplayer, it will not let you play. We wish we could play by ourselves but no it will not let you.
Worked well at first, then all of a sudden wasnt letting us play ! We are very dissatisfied.
Need more levels, highly depressed.
Our husband and we are long distance right now since Im deployed. We used this as a fun date night. Wishing there was more.
Its an incredible game, had lot of fun playing it with our girlfriend! The only bad thing about it is that its too short.
We hope this game will be free tomorrow,please.
