How it feels

A calm five-minute painting session by the Thames with soft music playing in the background.

What players say

Players say this is a very short interactive painting with a lovely soundtrack. It is not a game, but a brief emotional interlude that expands the world of The Slaughter. Some call it a demo or advertisement for the main series, while others love the chance to see Alice again. The positive reviews outweigh the negative, but there is a split on whether it qualifies as a game.
