'Pecaminosa' (ALL) Playable PC Demo Coming As Part Of Steam Games Festival

Pecaminosa is a pixel-art noir action/RPG you will have the opportunity to put yourself in the shoes of former detective John Souza and solve all kinds of cases on the streets of Pecaminosa.

Pecaminosa is a fictitious city between Mexico and the United States, where corruption and debauchery have taken permanent residence.

The ghost of Charlie “Two Angels”, a fallen mob boss, appears before Souza with a proposition: help him capture his former associates, so he can redeem himself, and be allowed unto Heaven.
Hell, that sounds easy, right?... Maybe too easy...
Will Souza set his bottle aside and take up the mantle of justice again? Or will he be just as damned as Charlie?

The player will be able to freely explore a typical city of the 1940's with a stunning level of detail, which is particularly noticeable in the interior of the buildings, decorated with touches of vintage jazz inspired by film noir classics.

Along with being able to explore different playstyles with the LIFE System, everyone that gets to play Pecaminosa will also be able to customize the main protagonist with a significant variety of weapons and apparel, as well as enter casinos and play gamblingmini-games.

Play Blackjack to earn extra money, visit the liquor store, socialize with the scum, visit the police station and the brothel, in addition to other venues recreated with great graphic detail… and don't trust anyone. There is a bullet with your name on it, and it's eager to meet you.

Cereal Games noir-like Action/RPG will be on show and playable during the Steam Game Festival, which will take place from February 3rd to 9th.

Along with the demo of the original Action-RPG noir, Cereal Games, its developers, promise important news and a few surprises during the festival.

The people behind Cereal Games don't hide their influences when creating Pecaminosa and describe their creation as a mix between Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and the imaginary of Orson Welles. The aim of their title is to provide a unique and impactful experience to the players. 

Pecaminosa leans on the perspective, mechanics, and objectives of the third Legend of Zelda game and adds the tension, drama and ambience of the film noir genre, like Citizen Kane and Touch of Evil.

Key Features:

  • Unique Ambience: Film noir atmosphere with an original jazz soundtrack that will make you fall in love...
  • Mini Games: Want to take home the pot playing Blackjack? Be our guest…The tables are still hot.
  • Guns & Apparel: Customize your character's weapons and clothing, evolving them through the L.I.F.E. System..
  • Boss Battles: Let’s raise a glass or two to the good old times! Besides taking part in an intense and dashing narrative, you also get to fight against big, bad, bosses!

Pecaminosa is coming to PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam) in May 2021.
