What Makes Labyrinth City Stand Out
Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is an adventure puzzle game for children and adults alike! Adapted from the award-winning children's illustration book series by IC4DESIGN and developed by Darjeeling, Labyrinth City takes you on a trip through a fantastic world of underground cities, hot-air balloons, tree-tops and haunted houses. Find your way through each interactive maze, engage with colorful characters, explore hidden pathways, unlock pieces of clues and solve the mystery along the way.
【The Story】
A new case has arrived for Pierre the Maze Detective! Mr. X has stolen the Maze Stone, which has the power to turn the whole Opera City into a maze. Help Pierre and his friend Carmen find their way through the mazes and stop Mr. X before it's too late!
【The Game】
You play as Pierre, Opera City's renowned maze detective, and you must retrieve the Maze Stone stolen by the notorious thief Mr. X! Without you, Opera City is doomed, as the Maze Stone has the power to turn everything around it into an intricate labyrinth. "Beautiful and cute puzzle games are fine and all," I hear you say, "but what about the challenge?". A fine question! In a maze, although there is only one true path to the exit, there are countless trails to hidden treasures and mini-games. So pay close attention while exploring Opera City and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Community Insight:
Our 6 yr old LOVED this game. We played it together and enjoyed finding all the little surprises throughout the game while we solved its puzzles. Highly recommend. If only there was a second version.
Once we got used to the mechanics we loved this game – great fun to explore the mazes.
We havent given a game 5* in quite awhile. This puzzle game is astonishingly fun, beautifully drawn and a nice challenge. We freaking loved it. To us it like a cross between Wheres Waldo and The Busy World of Richard Scaryplease make more! This was a good 3+ hour game for us.
Played this game and it was incredible and very challenging! The game designers did an excellent job developing this game and we were so impressed on how large the maze is along with many people and buildings and icons. We also liked seeking for hidden chests, puzzles, and stars, making it very challenging. We hope to see more sequels of it! Great game.
This is little gem is buried in the mass of games – so glad we just happened to see it !! So cute snd fun and ingenious even adults will enjoy it. Great game.
The mazes are challenging and the artwork is fantastic. And the story is charming. A winner all the way around. When will there be another chapter? Looking forward to it.
Fantastic game for all ages. Like the music on some of the levels. Particularly Dracula level.
This is a beautiful and charming apps with a wealth of details and content. If you like searching for hidden objects, this really hits the spot and for us better then any hidden object game we have ever played. The story is delightful and can be enjoyed by kids at heart of any age. The art is outstanding and the sounds and voice acting are all top notch. It controls well and our iPad and we are guessing it is best experienced on a larger screen. Simply a dazzling labor of love by the team that produced this.
This charming little game deserves more support and recognition. While clearly sourced from a childrens book, the bright and lively drawings make for a pleasant and simple source of relaxing seek and find puzzling for any age. The drawings are nice, the music is lively, and the narrators voice is perfect. Many more people need to be playing this.
Great game. If you liked Hidden Folks, youll like this game too. Theres so much to interact with, collect, and look at. Its an easy game, but in no way is it boring. The game moves you along at a really nice speed. We would recommend playing on Switch if you have the money for it. The game is more expensive on the Nitendo eShop, but the bigger screen will enhance your gaming experience for this game. We bought this on our iPhone (12 pro max) and even with the big screen there were times we wished we could zoom in for a better look. Overall, awesome game with beautiful sound effects and music.
This game is a beautiful work of art. Absolutely adore each and every detail in this. Im currently on the third maze and love how serene it is. Really reminded us of the Wheres Waldo art style which we love. Hope to see more levels in the future and possible spin off games. 10/10 Highly recommended.
Beautiful artwork, creative mazes, puzzles and treasures to discover. So many secrets and cute references – we even enjoyed the dialogue, which we normally skip. We were sad for it to end! Cant wait for a sequel.
It took us three-to-four hours to complete, with about 2/3rds of the collectibles collected. We think some younger players might find the timed races in the later stages a little frustrating. We especially liked the sounds and music. Great job all around.
Im only half way through the game, but so far Ive enjoyed it more than we expected. The artwork and detailing is awesome, it reminds us very much of the maze and search and find books we loved as a kid. The hidden items, stars, and interactions make it more than just going from point A to B. The one downside to the game is controlling the detective can be finicky at times, especially in levels with a lot of ladders. Otherwise, its a fun way to spend a couple of hours.
This game has absolutely adorable graphics! The gameplay is great but people must be playing this on different devices, because the mechanics are kinda bad on an iPad Pro, thats for sure! That little Pierre just really wont go where you want him to go; we tried with our finger and with our Apple pencil but its just really frustrating! We also cannot for the life of us figure out how to go back to previous levels to find items we know we missed! We go to the menu and then levels but are unable to change the level from the beginning. This just makes the game not a whole lot of fun, and frankly Im kind of surprised by all the great reviews when it doesnt work any better than this. Great game but developers need to make it actually work better than this.
The scenes and interactions are adorable but as another reviewer mentioned, the controls take a bit of getting used to. Id also LOVE to be able to rotate the screen 180 degrees because it would allow us to use our iPad cover to prop up the device. As is, we have to hold our iPad with the cover flopping into our lap to play the game.
We got to the timed levels. Why do developers do this? Change the entire experience by adding a too-fast timer. On an iPad you just cant beat it,.
