What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
This recreation cleverly encompasses and brings the dynamic world and characters of Blacksad to life, whilst incorporating a brand-new story that both newcomers and fans alike can enjoy.
+ Relaxing and felicitous jazz soundtrack, brilliantly giving 1950 film noir vibes.
Although sometimes it does come off as slightly amateurish, as a whole, the graphics and representation of the anthropomorphic cast is well done.
Recommendation: I'd advise giving it a try, especially if you have a Steam Deck or a portable console.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
