Two seasoned detectives, Ally and Old Dog, are entangled in a chilling unsolved case.

In order to save them, Ally and Old Dog must unravel a box of intricate puzzles masterfully designed by the nefarious killer. Test your mettle and join this high-stakes race against time, where every puzzle solved is a step closer to unmasking the Cryptic Killer.

Sequel to Unsolved Case, Unboxing The Cryptic Killer is the first paid game of the Cryptic Killer saga. Pretty similar to its predecessor, it's a 2 players co-op puzzle game (similar to the We Were Here games), where you are meant to be in constant communication and collaboration with your teammate to be able to solve the puzzles and proceed with the story. Being slightly longer than the free to play prequel, Unboxing The Cryptic Killer's puzzles start getting a bit more interactive and more complex as they proceed (while still starting with the classic simple puzzle that will help you understand that the main purpose of the game is that you cooperate with each other). I really like how the developers manage to keep adding puzzle after puzzle, all of them being completely different from each other, while keeping the essence of communication, where both players are activaly exchanging information and solving what's on their side (with none of the players having a particular priority or ...
Fun and challenging! Wish it was longer!
what a series, really really gooooooood
Fun and rather challenging. Great time!
Very interesting mind game for 2 players or for couple playing together. Definitely recommend this.
Play this developers games with my friend and I cant wait to play the third. I really love these games. The puzzles are challenging depending on her knowledge of some puzzles. I followed the developers bc i can't wait to see what else they have in store. Keep up the good work. Amazing art and voice acting.
Very nice game! Excelent to play with my long distance girlfriend that also like puzzles and videogames.
Me and my fiancé loved the prequel; however, this game was extremely frustrating. We felt like some of the puzzles were so incredibly unintuitive that they were on a verge on unsolvable. Furthermore, the hints, although usually helpful did not lead us sometimes to understand how we were even supposed to reach those results. Overall, I do not recommend.
