About

A dark corruption scandal in the heart of the New York City's underworld for charismatic detective John Blacksad!

The 50s, 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 our investigator to the darkest, most dismal depths of New York.

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.

Blacksad: Under the Skin reviews and comments

Great Story with 10-15 hours playtime but technical problems, improvable gameplay and technical problems. Best played on PC, Switch does not have the power to show the games graphical potential.
All in all I liked it and would recommend playing it if your into good detective games.
«Blew my mind»
«Can’t stop playing»
It’s hard to say which one is more clunky, the buggy graphics and poor controls or the story of racist animals. The world building and character acting is ambitious but far from makes up for the lackluster story beats and gameplay.
«Boooring»
Besides a few save breaking glitches which were annoying, I think Blacksad Under The Skin was great. And one of the biggest hidden gems of
last year along with Truberbrook.
