Puzzle Spy International

@agentepsilon.bsky.social

Hi, #PitchYaGame!

Puzzle Spy International is a '60s spy adventure where you travel the world, chat with (& flirt with!) contacts, and solve substantial thinky puzzles involving wordplay, logic & rules discovery.

A standalone demo is on Steam at s.team/a/3406690 and on itch.io.

#puzzleGame #VN

In this screenshot from Puzzle Spy International: Demo & Prelude, Agent Epsilon - dark skin, short dark hair, serious expression, in a teal and charcoal mod dress - is listening to detective Ewan Danger - chiseled features, blonde hair, 5-o'clock shadow, vest and tie and trench-coat. They're in London, standing in front of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, and the new Scotland Yard (yes, they really are all right on the same block together, or at least were in the mid-60s.)
Danger is saying "We've positively identified them as Hammer and sickle. They're two 'obfuskoperatives' who work for the Soviet Cypher Force."

A puzzle with a bunch of clues at the top and 26 baggage tags at the bottom. The tags are from the '60s, back when each airport had its own colors and graphic elements on the tags, they didn't all look the same like they do now. The baggage tags are in disarray, as a player has already moved many of them around. Covering up some of the clues is a modal showing hints for the puzzle. The hints read "hint 1: There's something wrong with each one of these sentences" and "hint 2: There are places where letters are missing, but thanks to the baggage tags, we have extra letters!"

A scene in a cafe. It's simplified, retro art with just a few colors, mostly browns, purples and tans. Several people sit at tables, and most of them are looking at you. Each person has a box to fill in next to them. There are hints on the left - for example, "Embarek is reading" and "Aloui and Bakhti hate each other and sit in opposite corners as far apart as possible" - but in this screenshot, some of the hints are in fake Latin. You'll have to eventually buy the game to see the real clues and find your contact in this cafe.

Agent Epsilon is confronted by Stefania Plinth, who is agrily gesturing and saying "Those diavoli! They broke in here and stole the Eswatini Giant!" Both women are in 60s outfits, Epsilon in a teal mod short-sleeved dress and Stefania in a blue and cream dress with a wide collar and double-breaster buttons up the front. She's got cats-eye glasses and her hair is in a tight bun. Both are standing in the geology museum, with display cases of rocks, framed phots of how plate tectonics work, and a T-rex skeleton in the back. The scene is purple and gold and the whole thing is drawn in a mid-century modern art style.
