To celebrate the first anniversary of its spinoff prequel Shadows on the Vatican: Nightingale, Italian developer Daring Touch is pleased to announce SHADOWS ON THE VATICAN – ACT III: SLOTH, the highly anticipated next full installment of their classic-styled point-and-click adventure series coming to PC on Steam in 2023.
Corruption dwells in the darkness at the highest levels of the Catholic Church, as a small but powerful cabal is covertly pulling the strings behind the most pivotal aspects of Italian society. In the penultimate act of Daring Touch’s four-part religious conspiracy thriller in Italy, ex-priest James Murphy and a paid assassin named Silvia must put aside their differences and join forces to expose the “Suits” before becoming their latest victims.
Shadows on the Vatican is a story of intrigue inspired by true events and freely adapted from In God's Name, the bestselling nonfiction novel by David Yallop. Alternating control between James and Silvia, players will explore a variety of beautifully illustrated locations across Rome, which look better than ever thanks to completely restyled hand-drawn graphics and redesigned animations.
The unlikely heroes will once again meet a cast of colorful characters and solve a series of challenging but intuitive puzzles to progress, with danger never far away. James must also confront his own demons from the past, and grapple with how to handle the mysterious stranger who may just know his inscrutable young companion's deepest secrets. Through many twists and turns, the relationship between the American doctor and the impetuous mercenary evolves into something neither of them could ever have imagined.
FEATURES:
Inspired by true events and set entirely in Italy
Explore Rome and visit breathtaking hand-drawn locations in full HD resolution
Complete visual restyling, with new 2D models and redesigned animations
Classic-styled puzzles offer a challenge for every kind of player
Control alternates between two playable characters
Full English voice-overs (with subtitles in Italian, German, Spanish, French and possibly more)
