Where cultists crawl, where demons dwell, where the occult… occults? *ahem* That’s where you’ll find Detective Francis McQueen, the lead investigator of the criminally underfunded Darkside Division. When evil darkens the doorsteps of Twin Lakes City – hell, even when it just loiters around shop fronts or hangs out in shady alleyways – he’s there, ready to investigate the cases that nobody else will.
He is The Darkside Detective.
“Throughout, the writing and stories come across like an old LucasArts game, full of dry humour, wacky characters, and madcap narratives.” –The XboxHub
Akupara Games published The Darkside Detective on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Stadia, also published and ported the game on PS4 & 5, and Xbox (compatible with Xbox One and Xbox Series S|X).
