The Academy: The First Riddle

6 July, 2020 by KatBp 58 Comments

Do you enjoy playing all kinds of games? I enjoy a lot of games, especially on my phone. Sometimes you just want to sit there and play a fun game on your phone or computer. There are so many out there too. My kids love to play them as well. Sometimes my kids are in the car for a long period of time, so they enjoy playing on their phones to keep them busy. One that I recently heard about, is The Academy: The First Riddle.

This game has been really interesting and a lot of fun to play. Puzzle and riddle games can be a lot of fun, so this was the perfect game for me. I love how it resembles a bit of Harry Potter too. It’s been interesting being able to solve puzzles and riddles. Those are the kinds of games I enjoy the most. The whole game itself is very well made too. I love all the characters and buildings.

About

“The Academy: The First Riddle is our most ambitious title to date, featuring breathtaking environments, captivating lore, and hundreds of challenging puzzles for players to sink their teeth into,” says Pine Studio’s Boris Barbir. “We’re eager for fans to unwrap the mystery surrounding Arbor’s Academy and shed light on the secrets hiding among the school’s darkest corridors.”

Key Features

Challenging Puzzles

Fans will be able to solve over 200 puzzles and riddles to prove they’re worthy of being enrolled at the prestigious Arbor’s Academy. Each challenge is easy to learn but difficult to master.

Mysterious School

Inspired by Harry Potter, there are many stories waiting to be discovered within the Academy’s walls. Colorful classrooms, lush grounds, and ominous hallways are a few of the many places fans will be able to explore.

Captivating Narrative

As students roam the Academy, they’ll uncover secrets hidden around the storied institution’s campus and embark on a roughly 20-hour adventure that will be spoken of for generations to come.

Memorable Characters

The Academy owes its esteemed reputation to its extraordinary students and staff. Students will forge relationships with a variety of friends and foes on their journey, each one unforgettable in their own unique way.

Intriguing Lore

While there are puzzles to be discovered nearly everywhere in the Academy, students are free to take a breather and learn more of the institution’s rich history through a range of fun activities.

Get the Game

The Academy: The First Riddle is now available on PC and Mac via Steam for $19.99 and on Google Play and the App Store for $9.99. Fans may try the game’s first chapter for free on mobile devices. Additional chapters can be unlocked for $6.99 each or $9.99 as a bundle. The title will arrive on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch later this summer.

This game is a Harry Potter and Professor Layton-inspired title from “Faraway” studio. It’s now available on PC, MAC, Google Play, and the app store. Make sure to check it out. If you love solving riddles and puzzles, I’m sure you’ll enjoy this game too.

    My son plays a lot of video gams but we have never heard of Academy. I know him and his friends would love a real brain teaser like this.

    Pretty intriguing, but pricey for the game. It competes with all that is available for much less or free.
