The Blackwell Deception

In the hustle and bustle of the city, street psychics lure people with promises of happiness, wealth, and love. These con artists snatch a fortune out of gullible people. But when some of these victims die, they leave behind befuddled spirits, and only a real psychic can solve the problem. Rosa and Joey are on the case, searching from the seedy nightclubs of downtown to the opulent apartments and luxury yachts of the affluent. The duo uncovers the dark secrets of the street psychics that Joey would rather let remain buried. The Blackwell Deception is the fourth in a series of games that consist of “Blackwell 1: Legacy,” “Blackwell 2: Unbound,” and “Blackwell 3: Convergence.” The series’ storyline concludes in Blackwell 5: Epiphany. Rock Paper Shotgun praises The Blackwell Deception, calling it Wadjet Eye’s most exceptional adventure game to date while also stating that it’s one of their favorites in a long time. Adventure Gamers mention that this game is by far the best in the series and call it an enjoyable retro game that’s easy to get into but hard to stop playing.
