Jekyll & Hyde – Visual Novel, Detective Story Game - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Yes, before releasing ‘Jekyll and Hyde’, we released MazM's first work, ‘Yellow Bricks’. ‘Yellow Bricks’ is a story game based on the classic novel [The Wizard of Oz], and is currently only released in South Korea.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

In order to immerse users well, we tried to reflect the times of London, England in the 19th century.

_MazM

MazM is a project of Growing Seeds Corp. South Korea. It is a space where stories are born again. MazM gives you the impression of the forgotten stories!

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

For example, games such as ‘To the moon’, ‘This war of mine’, and ‘Detention’.
‘To the Moon’ is very good at storytelling, ‘This war of Mine’ is impressed by the message the game throws to users, and we think ‘Detension’ is a good game in that it contains historical facts well.
We love games that share not only fun but also values about my life to users.

How long have you been working on this app?

We wanted people who didn't know the original novel to understand the original story and feel the impression through our game. Furthermore, We hoped that we, living in modern times, would be able to think about the dual nature of human beings.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

We wanted people who didn't know the original novel to understand the original story and feel the impression through our game. Furthermore, We hoped that we, living in modern times, would be able to think about the dual nature of human beings.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

Our biggest difference is the creation of a story game using classical novels. And our advantage is that we reinterpreted the development of stories that can be boring and difficult in modern times through MazM's own storytelling and directing.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

Our goal is to consistently release games that can consistently generate our vision and voice. Even after "Jekyll & Hyde," "The Phantom of Opera," based on the novel [The Phantom of the Opera], and "Pechka," which deals with the Korean Diaspora and their history in the Russian Far East in the 1900s, were released.

We are currently developing 'Hyde and Seek', a spin-off of 'Jekyll and Hyde', and 'Thy Creature', based on the classic novel [Frankenstein]

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

We hope the players enjoy the game and feel the impression of the story. And if MazM's storytelling and production were good, we hope you play our other games. You will be able to feel new emotions and fun.
