New York, New York, May 26, 2021 – Publisher Pixmain and independent animation and development studio Darjeeling today announced that captivating puzzle game Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is coming to PC on June 22nd, followed by Nintendo Switch, Android and iOS devices in summer 2021. The game is based on the global hit comic book series ‘Pierre the Maze Detective’ by Japanese artist Hirofumi Kamigaki and illustration studio IC4DESIGN. Players will take the role of dashing young detective Pierre, explore the intricate hand-drawn worlds, and track down the elusive villain Mr X to save the day.

Stop, thief! Mr X has stolen the magical Maze Stone from Opera City’s museum, but fear not – Pierre is hot on his trail. The chase will take players through a series of incredibly detailed scenes, each loaded with eccentric characters, animations and intriguing interactions. The chilled and charming game experience features a variety of lovingly hand-crafted locations, where players will be tasked to find their way out of a maze, complete minigames and find hidden objects and clues to progress.

Each level of Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is based on a hand-drawn picture by Hirofumi Kamigaki and the Japan-based illustration studio IC4DESIGN, brought to life by the animators at Darjeeling in France. The game is a passion project born from the Darjeeling team’s love of the book series, and has already collected awards including the IndieCade 2020 Visual Design award and the Game Connection Asia 2020 Best Quality of Art award.

This game has been so much fun to play. I personally love a good puzzle, and that is exactly what this game is all about. You have to solve your way to certain destinations. Some can be more difficult than others. I usually have to walk my way through to figure out how to get around to where I need to go. It’s definitely a puzzle, so if you love puzzles, I think you’ll love this game.

My daughters and I have been playing this on the Nintendo Switch. In this fun game, you get to be the detective and solve the puzzle. Since it is a maze, you get to walk all over and try to find your way around. That is the part I love the most about this game. This game is a great maze and puzzle game. We have been having such a blast with it. I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed it too. I’ve probably been the one to play this more than anyone else. It has been a lot of fun to play.

This game is already out, so you can grab your own copy of the game for the Nintendo Switch.
