For anyone who ever said to a horror movie: Don’t go in there! Now they can live those, oftentimes poor, choices. While you and your friends are taking a vacation in Slaughterville, a great evil awakens just to ruin your day. Slaughterville will take players on a thrilling adventure through the fictional town that just happens to be host to numerous supernatural and horrific events. Yet still, it remains a popular vacation spot for college students looking for a good time. Playing as one of the typical horror movie staples, the player will interact with one of the main locations in Slaughterville in an effort to find the Clues necessary to stop the Villain from winning and ruining their summer plans.

Ultimately, through this interaction, they will gather the materials and Clues necessary to finally defeat the Villain! Slaughterville is a game of exploration and atmosphere for 1-6 players.
