O detetive Francis McQueen volta a Twin Lakes, a 34ª cidade mais assombrada dos Estados Unidos, para desvendar nove casos independentes de paradoxos paranormais arrepiantes. Ele investiga mistérios macabros em um parque de diversões, asilo de idosos, circuito de luta livre amadora e até na Irlanda, enquanto resgata o parceiro Officer Dooley do Darkside. Essa aventura point-and-click indie assustadoramente engraçada traz investigações sobrenaturais casuais no PC.
Os jogadores guiam McQueen na apuração de barulhos estranhos na noite e arrepios sinistros, mantendo a maldição de nível médio da cidade sob controle. O ciclo principal gira em torno da exploração point-and-click de abominações amaldiçoadas que exigem quebra-cabeças inteligentes. Fãs de aventuras curtas e humorísticas vão curtir essas histórias autônomas.
Delouse your room with sage and pack up your travel-sized ouija board, it’s time to re-enter Twin Lakes - America’s 34th most haunted city. Join Detective McQueen as he puzzles his way through 9 chilling cases, risking life and pixelated limb to solve the macabre mysteries that plague the poor town.
Twin Lakes is a cursed city. Less cursed than say, “Demons are tearing it apart” but more cursed than “always loses its keys” or “often steps in puddles”. It’s roughly in the middle of the cursed scale, is what we’re trying to say.
Cursed enough that it’s a nuisance. Cursed enough that somebody has to deal with it…
That’s where The Darkside Detective comes in. Whenever you hear a bump in the night, feel a tingle up your spine, or smell something fishy, Detective Francis McQueen isn’t far behind.
No, he doesn’t smell of fish - it’s a phrase, come on...
Picking up after the events of The Darkside Detective, McQueen has to save his usually-present (in body, if not mind) sidekick Officer Dooley from the Darkside, so the two can get back to what they do best - investigating the city’s many strange, often paranormal, always paradoxical goings-on.
Join them in this frighteningly funny point-and-click adventure as they investigate nine more standalone cases bringing them to a carnival, the local retirement home, an amateur wrestling circuit and even as far away as Ireland as they do what they can to keep the Darkside at bay.
