Released: 2/21/2024

Have you heard of Turtle Soup? It is a kind of Lateral Thinking Puzzlers popular in the East, and the name of Albatross Soup is more well known in the West. In short, Turtle Soup is a collection of puzzles that at first seem unlikely or illogical. The quizmaster offers a surprise ending (puzzler), and players deduce what leads to the ending (answer). This game contains 48 mind benders from easy to hard created by 15 authors, with an AI quizmaster for a single-player experience. Just remember: when it comes to this puzzle type, it's important to think way out of the box! A girl found herself stuck in an underground mall, with a body and some turtle soup lying around. She seemed to be caught in a mysterious loop. Could you help her get out and solve the mysteries? A boy lies dead on a sidewalk, with only his underwear and an umbrella in his hands. What happened? A stewardess helped splint the pilot’s broken legs, and brought him fresh seafood every day. However, it seems the pilot is very scared of the stewardess. Why? A big chunk of Turtle Soup are suspenders and thrillers with some dark styles, and others are fun, humorous. Rest assured they do not contain any revolting, unpleasing content, and you can skip if you don’t like one. When you play the game alone, you need to think, reason, and even imagine to reveal the answers to the seemingly illogical, impossible puzzlers. Enter keywords. Synonyms are also OK! Ask AI if the keywords are relevant. Hit a dead end? Spend coins to get correct keywords immediately. As you find keywords and hints, the story will gradually become more and more clear visually. Is the answer at all how you had pictured? Get a collectible for every completed puzzler/story, and they can be worn by our little Turtle.
