Penny Arcade Adventures

The initial Penny Arcade game launches tomorrow, entitled On The Rainslick Precipice of Darkness. An action-adventure game with turn-based combat and RPG elements, the film-noir setting and trademark PA humor give the game a unique feel. Some reviews have presented the game poorly, although a recent PC Gamer review gives the game an 80/100. The game is available on PC through the new Greenhouse digital distribution site and through XBox Live Arcade. I may have to check it out, if only to laugh out loud at the undoubtedly obscene dialog.
