Description
A dark corruption scandal in the heart of New York City’s underworld awaits you in Blacksad: Under the Skin.
The 1950s, New York City…
Joe Dunn, owner of a boxing club, is found dead. Meanwhile, rising star Bobby Yale – due to take to the ring for the most important fight of his career – has mysteriously disappeared. Sonia Dunn, Joe’s daughter, takes over the gym and must deal with its financial woes. She hires private detective, John Blacksad, to investigate Yale’s disappearance.
This sinister case will take him to the darkest, most dismal depths of New York City’s underworld. With its anthropomorphic characters and its incredible 1950s feel, Blacksad: Under the Skin promises all the eerily dark adventure of a detective novel, just like the eponymous comic book series.
Conduct the investigation in your own way. Make use of your feline senses as you hunt for new clues. Make decisions on behalf of Blacksad and influence the outcome of the case.
Based on the noir comic series Blacksad, the game is a noir detective story about a PI by the name of John Blacksad, who gets dragged into the case of a murdered boxing club owner. The game features an interactive system much reminiscent of Grim Fandango, where you have direct control of the character, and only things that catch his gaze are interactable.
