- Jenny LeClue is now available on the iOS App Store
- A former Apple Arcade exclusive, it has proven to be a Kickstarter darling with a successful funding campaign.
- We hope to see this intriguing detective game make its way to other stores as well.
Eccentric detective game Jenny LeClue – Detective is now available on the iOS App Store. You may remember this Kickstarter darling when it initially made the jump to Apple Arcade after a successful campaign way back in 2019. However, it looks like the game will now be available elsewhere after being removed from Apple's subscription service.
While the idea of a teenage detective solving mysteries may seem cute and childish, Jenny LeClue is anything but. Whether it's the melancholy atmosphere, the choice-driven narrative, or simply the fact that Jenny is trying to absolve her mother of murder, this isn't exactly Nancy Drew.
However, it is clear why Jenny LeClue has gained so many followers. And with innovative mechanics like looking around during conversations with other characters to find clues that can guide the conversation, or the meta-narrative of this technically story-within-a-story narrated by author Arthur K Finklestein, Jenny LeClue is sure to captivate you.

I've always been a little confused about the Apple Arcade service, mostly because I'm an Android gamer. You see all sorts of amazing titles that are, on the one hand, certainly successful because they're on Apple Arcade, but they're also made unavailable to the wider gaming audience because of that.
I hope Jenny Leclue comes to other mobile platforms in the near future, because it will definitely grab some attention.
