Unsolved Case - Update 1.2.1

Bug fixes:
  • Fix speech bubbles not appearing correctly in some scenarios
  • Fixed a problem when a cursor could not be controlled if a controller was plugged in
  • Reduced texture sizes on mobile devices

Unsolved Case - Update 1.2.0

This update is huge because we completely reworked the multiplayer backend to fix connectivity issues, reduce costs, increase stability, and ensure long-term support of the platform.

WARNING: this update is NOT backward compatible, meaning to play together, players need to use game version 1.2.0 or later.

Changes and additions:

  • Reworked the multiplayer backend to fix various connectivity issues
  • Added 60 FPS cap
  • Added autosave after each level
  • Laser puzzle has now fewer obstacles and requires less precision to solve
  • The hint system now warns the user before giving a solution to the puzzle
  • The forklift puzzle now has additional control options


Bug fixes:

  • Fixed changing audio levels in some puzzles
  • Fixed a bug that sometimes would prevent players from advancing a cutscene
  • Fixed various connectivity issues
  • Fixed a bug that would prevent achievements from being saved

Unsolved Case - Patch Update 1.1.2

Bug fixes:
  • Temporarily disable server version verification, as it sometimes waits indefinitely to get data. The feature is a safeguard for the future, so it can be disabled until we find the root cause


Some players may still experience issues when creating or connecting to a game. This issue is very difficult to track down, but we're working hard to fix it. If you experience any issues, please reach out to us at [email protected]
