The Hidden Side
Read full descriptionHide full description
Dare to discover the truth? Dive into The Hidden Side, the ultimate cooperative mystery game on mobile, entirely inspired by true events and shocking real-life stories. Turn your everyday moments into a real crime scene or a historical mystery. Somewhere between a tabletop board game and a party card game (in the tradition of the famous Black Stories), will you be able to ask the right questions to reveal the hidden side of the story before it slips away? A PERFECT GAME FOR EVERY SITUATION: • 2 to 10 players: Ideal as a two-player game for couples, small gatherings, or to liven up a large group game night. • Quick rounds (5 to 30 minutes): Perfect for a fast session or for chaining riddles all night long. • Play anywhere: Designed with no cumbersome material, it's the perfect travel game. Pull it out on public transit (train, plane), during a commute, or as a party game during a game night with friends. • Available in 3 languages: Fully playable in French, English, and Spanish. HOW TO PLAY? A simple and addictive concept: 1. Choose a Keeper of the Secret: They will be the only one who knows the truth. 2. Read the riddle: The Keeper reads the case out loud. 3. Investigate together: Ask closed questions (which can only be answered with YES or NO). 4. Solve the mystery: Reveal the hidden side as soon as your team of detectives thinks they've figured it out. Why you will love The Hidden Side: • Cooperative & strategic gameplay: Collaborate with your loved ones, share your theories, and test your intuition to become a Master Detective. • Inspired by true events: No fiction here, every mystery and true crime story is authentic and terrifyingly realistic. • Simple & accessible: No complex rules to read for hours. Launch a riddle game in just a few seconds. Whether you are a true crime and criminal investigation enthusiast, an escape game lover, a fan of social party board games, or simply looking for an engaging multiplayer game for your travels, The Hidden Side offers you an immersive, intriguing, and addictive experience. Download the app now, gather your players, solve the riddles, and reveal the hidden side… before it's too late! Content Warning: Inspired by real-world events, some cases feature mature themes and may not be suitable for children under 12.
