The Darkside Detective: Season Two

Whether youre a returning player or brand new to town, Twin Lakes City has something for everyone. Havent played Season 1? We understand. Theres a lot going on in the world, from Norway relocating to the moon to France going in reverse to Californian Krakens. You cant play everything. And if Star Wars can start on Episode 4, why cant you start here with Season 2? We have your back (which were not returning, by the way), so this season starts with a recap of everything you need to know from the previous game. Season 2 is bigger, better, and 100% slimier than ever! A year after the Motel Incident of Season 1, we find our reliable Darkside Detective, Francis McQueen, picking up the pieces that left the Darkside Divisions dynamic duo as a slightly less-than-dynamic solo. While the best line of defense against the unknown took a hit to their ranks, the Darksides ominous influence remains ever-present with the supernatural running amuck and the paranormal causing havoc around the completely (ab)normal city of Twin Lakes. Its time to brush up on the occult, bust out your signed copy of Guylight, and answer the age-old question, Why does the moon always seemingly show up when something goes wrong? This brand new collection of comedic point-and-click adventures will see Detective McQueen in six new standalone cases as he investigates a creepy carnival, explores a retirement home, and even tries to unwind on a trip to sunny old Ireland Features:

• 6 brand new standalone bite-sized micro cases to solve in The Darkside Detective franchise, with more to come post-launch
• Detective McQueen goes big with an international case of global proportions
• Twin Lakes hottest fashion trends

• Use of an innovative combination of noises known as Moo-sak to build atmosphere and chase off lonely, eerie silence
