Looking for an adult-themed point-and-click adventure taking place in a Victorian, noir, and pixelated world? Well Brainchild today announced the PC release date for The Slaughter, which hits digital shelves January 28, 2016. The point-and-click adventure will be launching on both Steam and at Brainchild Studios official site.

So what's the story all about? Well, a serial killer is on the loose in Victorian London, and you play the role of PI Sydney Emerson, who pretty much has been demoted to dog searcher and alleyway punching bag. However, things take a turn for the stranger as he tracks down a serial killer utilizing clues from Sydney's dreams.

Here's what will be included in The Slaughter: Act One:

  • A noir adventure laced with adult themes and dark humour.
  • A faithful recreation of Victorian London, from decadence to depravity.
  • Classic point-and-click gameplay in the vein of the LucasArts games of yore.
  • Surreal dream-worlds hounding subconscious clues.
  • Follow the trails of the killer, or drink until you vomit at the pub.
  • Original soundtrack blends film noir and traditional Victorian instruments.
  • Episodic release in three acts.

Seems like something up your alley? If it is, you can head on over to the official site to pre-order for $8.99 or hit the Steam page.
