Indie developer Funbakers and publisher Playdius just announced that their new, mysterious, story-driven iOS title, Silent Streets: The Mocking Bird will be available on Mar. 1, 2018, exclusively for iOS (but coming soon for Android).
Players will explore the foreboding town of Snowport, leading an investigation into a series of bloody homicides in a 19th century, Victorian-era murder mystery. As one of the first ARKit-powered titles to launch on mobile, the augmented reality features call on players' true detective skills as they investigate objects and places of interest to uncover clues and evidence. The game features an minimalist interface aimed at showcasing the Victorian-era setting as you attempt to unravel the mysterious killings through back alleys and dark streets.
"We want to support premium, story-driven games -- particularly, truly original titles that will encourage players to think and play outside of the box," said Guillaume Jamet, Head of Publishing at Playdius. "With its gripping story and unique AR gameplay mechanics, Silent Streets: The Mocking Bird is a perfect follow up to Playdius' recent release of the critically acclaimed mobile adventure title Bury Me, My Love."
You can pre-order the first episode of the Silent Streets mystery saga on the App Store today for $2.99.
