May's Mysteries: The Secret of Dragonville is a puzzle adventure game that's available now for Android in Early Access and will also release for iOS, with pre-orders set to open on January 25th. It will then fully launch sometime in March, though a set release date hasn't been decided just yet.

Publisher FredBear Games Ltd says that fans of the Professor Layton series will find a lot to enjoy in May's Mysteries: The Secret of Dragonville. It follows the titular May as she heads off on an adventure to try and find her missing brother.

May is both a charismatic and intelligent young girl who will advance through the story by completing a series of different puzzles and minigames. And there's a lot to get through it seems, with the game promising over 25 hours of gameplay.

In that time, along with May, you'll tackle over 230 logic-based puzzles as well as engaging with 25 hidden object games and 13 rhythm-centric sections. This is all broken down into four different worlds that feature over 80 different locations to visit where you'll meet 47 – an incredibly specific number – different characters who will lend a hand during your adventure.
