The Slater

The Slater is a story-driven first-person stealth-action-puzzle game. You play as Mark Slater, a former cop whose father is murdered while investigating D-Pain, a new designer drug. You set out to find who killed him and who is behind the drug, eliminating those involved one by one.

Plan your approach

You explore atmospheric environments, gather information about your enemies and look for ways to reach your targets without being seen. Observe their routines and use the surroundings to create distractions, lure guards, and take their clothes to blend in. You can carry bodies and hide them, collect useful key cards and access codes, climb ladders, or crawl through ventilation shafts to surprise enemies.

There are multiple ways to deal with targets, including using your bare hands or a silenced handgun. You can complete objectives in any order, and the game has a rating system. It is possible to finish all levels without killing anyone except the targets.

Levels and consequences

The game has six unique levels, each with multiple objectives, as well as cinematic, atmospheric cutscenes. There are no checkpoint saves or loads, so you must think carefully before acting. If you trigger an alarm, guards hunt you until you are dead.
