The dry sense of humour and the surrealism that permeate the entire game made the difference in this case.Waiting for the remaining two parts will be both easy and difficult now. Because now I know for sure they will be good but I wish I could play them now.I elaborate more on: http://www.kickstartadventure.com/home/the-slaughter-act-one-review/. I have to say that I was honestly pleasantly surprised by this little gem. The story and characters were very well-written especially as far as indie developments go in the Point and Click department. I cannot wait for Act Two, I'm really so happy with this one. I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would. I hope to see more games from Brainchild!The main character Sydney was lovely to play as, and the other characters had their own charms with vivid dialogue. I'm so glad to read a conversation that does sound like real people talking. All in all entertaining!Aiming to get a cute li'l glowing koi fish emoticon.. Liked the graphic style and the game overall. The few times the "thoughts" of the main character show up gave him a bit of depth. Loved the music. The only thing that put me off a bit is the price, but it depends on how much the next acts will be priced.Puzzles pretty much absent. Gentle paced point n click with some interesting humour and ambience.A few minor annoyances and a little short but overall an enjoyable experience and will definitely buy the next act.. The Slaughter : Act One, developped by one man studio Brainchild is all about a comedic theatrical scripting whispered in a the depraved corners of a Victorian London. Alex Francois, alias the brainedchild, had accomplished the task of raising a bit over £8000 for the developpement of this point-and-click adventure which will leave the players hungry for the Second Act. Tell me something...As a french novellist, I have to admit I'm envious of Francois's talent at scripting a cast. Each character has a set of traits that makes them unique and engaging. Believe it or not, I've grown attached to the main character, Sydney Emerson, who was making me laugh consistently during the opening scene of my adventure. In a trashy dark alleyway of London, as if it was not already funny that the low life investigator gets kicked in the guts for having been in someone else's dream, he keeps punching both his attackers with tasty humourous insults. This dark and polished humour established itself in the beginning and it just never stopped. During my playthrough I would find myself smiling at every line the text has to offer. The only thing that still needs clarification is the multiple dreams in which you find the investigator. I know this is only act one and there is still time to make that connection, but I feel if Francois had not left this part totally to my interpretation, he could have built suspense about it. As a result, by the end of Act One, the dreams left me annoyed that I had to click my way through them. That being said, I did not lose my appetite for Act 2.
