About The Slater

✦ AI summary

Play as a former cop seeking revenge for your father's murder by infiltrating criminal operations and eliminating targets through tactical stealth, puzzle-solving, and environmental manipulation across six atmospheric levels. With no checkpoints and permanent consequences for your actions, every move must be carefully calculated or face being hunted down by guards in this story-driven stealth-action game.

Get ready to kill low-life drug dealers, notorious crime bosses and anyone who stands in your way as you seek revenge for your father’s murder.

The Slater is a story-driven first-person stealth-action-puzzle game that puts you in the shoes of a former cop Mark Slater, whose father gets murdered while investigating a new designer drug D-Pain. Now is your chance to eliminate everyone involved with his murder, and everyone who had anything to do with the new designer drug. Be prepared to assassinate your targets one by one.

Use stealth-based tactics to get the upper hand on your enemies and take them out. Think your enemies as puzzle pieces. How do you get past the guards? Who do you kill and how? Think carefully before you make your move or you are the one ending up dead. The Slater is brought to you by Alessandro Laina, the sole man behind Laina Interactive.

Pretty good for an indie Hitman-like game. Love the dark atmosphere too. No regrets buying this one on sale 👌

The tutorial or first level was interesting, it appeared to be the primitive form of an exciting gameplay, even the narrative sounded good. Unfortunately, the second and third levels were exactly the same. There is no interaction with the characters in the game, the playing experience doesn't expand as the game proggresses, it's the same formula over and over, the only choices to be made are regarding the chronological order of the events, you will always have to kill someone and steal their clothes to access other rooms, until you get to the last room. Graphics and gameplay reminds me of cheap web minigames I played like 15 years ago, not worth having to install 9GB of content or paying for it.
