What is BLACKWOOD?

This single-player, third-person action thriller follows Anton, a shopkeeper and contract killer in New York in 2012. You restock shelves, set prices, and work the counter by day, then shoot enemies and perform close-range takedowns on nighttime missions. The story is divided into three acts, with later acts planned as free updates.

For you if...

+you enjoy switching between everyday routines and criminal missions
